Liszt and Saint-Simonism
Liszt was involved for a time with several revolutionary movements in 1830s France. The best study of his brief but active enthusiasm for the philosophical and socio-religious teachings of Claude Henri, Comte de Saint-Simon remains:
801. Locke, Ralph P. “Liszt’s Saint-Simonian Adventure.” 19th Century Music 4 (1980–1981): 209–27. ISSN 0148-2076. ML1.N27.
Contends that Liszt sought to distance himself from a movement he never ceased to admire, and reviews a large body of documentary evidence about Liszt and Saint-Simon’s followers to support that contention. Locke’s article is valuable not only for its discussion of its subject’s idealism but also for its information about Saint-Simon, his followers among early nineteenth-century musicians, and beliefs and practices attributed to of the philosopher’s disciples. Illustrations include a page of Liszt’s corrections for the first volume of Ramann’s survey study (item 3) and three caricatures. Important corrections for this article appeared in 19th Century Music 5 (1982), p. 281. The article itself is based to a considerable extent on Locke’s dissertation, Music and the Saint-Simonians: The Involvement of Félicien David and Other Musicians in a Socialist Movement (University of Chicago, 1980).
