Scope and content
Outline of a project presenting a comprehensive investigation of the problem of artistic creation, based on Beethoven's sketches. Zuckerkandl reviews the history of Beethoven sketch studies and argues that they provide a concrete trace of the inner laws and logic of a universal creative process, which can be applied to other composers and possibly other art forms, like poetry and myth. Zuckerkandl lays out a timeline and process for the project, which will take at least two years and will be published as individual essays, which will be collected in a book.
