- Description
- Louise Pound (1872–1958) was a literary scholar, athlete, musician, and a women’s sports advocate. She is remembered for her work in the field of linguistics and folklore and for her role as the first woman president of the Modern Language Association. A member of a distinguished Nebraska family Louise completed her undergraduate education at the University of Nebraska. When American universities wouldn’t admit her for graduate study, she went on to obtain a PhD in Heidelberg, Germany. She returned to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln to teach in the English department for the next forty-five years. As a scholar Louise crusaded for the serious study of American English and founded the field’s leading journal, demolished a powerfully defended approach to the study of American folk song, and fought tirelessly to open athletic and professional opportunities for women. She was, in short, what one admirer called a “universal wonder.” She befriended and played an influential role in the life of the young Willa Cather during Cather’s years at the University of Nebraska.

- Description
- Representing a historical cross-section of performance and training in Western music since the seventeenth century, this publication brings to light the private and performance lives of five women musicians and composers. Guiding readers through the thirty years war in central Europe, elite courts in Germany, urban salons in Paris, nazi control of Germany and Austria, and American musical life today, as well as personal experiences of marriage, motherhood, and widowhood, the author provides insights into the culture in which each woman was active: duchess Sophie-Elisabeth of Braunschweig-Lueneberg (harpsichordist), Elisabeth-Claude Jacquet de La Guerre (composer), Josephine Lang (pianist and composer), baroness Maria Bach (composer and pianist), Ann Schein (pianist). Mining musical autographs, unpublished letters and press reviews, interviews, and music archives in the United States and Europe, the author probes each musician's social and economic status, her education and musical training, the cultural expectations within the traditions and restrictions of each woman's society, and other factors.
