Scope and content
Essay draft that addresses the idea that Beethoven could not write fugues. Compares Beethoven's fugal technique to Bach's, sets out two principal forces (polarity and intensification), and analyses these principles at work, together with the concept of sonata form, in the Grosse Fuge. Light handwritten edits in Zuckerkandl's hand to phrasing; no edits in content.
