Evening in the Palace of Reason by James R. Gaines

Filed under: Doug & Doug Dig... by Douglas Wilson @ 8:06 am

Doug & Doug Dig

This month, from Doug Wilson:
Evening in the Palace of ReasonEvening in the Palace of Reason is a striking book. In it, James Gaines wonderfully describes the background and setting for a brief encounter in 1747 between Johann Sebastian Bach and Frederick the Great. Frederick was an Enlightenment king, and represented what was thought to be the very modern future. Bach was a representative of the legacy of the Reformation, and another set of values entirely. This is a gripping and satisfying read.
