THE ETHICAL AND POLITICAL CONDITIONS OF MUSICAL ACTIVITY IN POLAND AFTER WORLD WAR II

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 July 2010

Extract

Musical activity is one of the many forms of purposeful human activity. Its peculiarity lies in its creative character – an attribution which brings to mind the concept elaborated by Mooney (1963), in which the quality of creativeness was evoked in relation to the product (or artistic work), the process of its production and its author. One aspect of Mooney's reflections that are of importance to the present discussion is his observation that a considerable influence on creative activity is exercised by the favourable or detrimental conditions under which it arises (atmosphere, social environment, historical context).
