The most important aspect of my thesis lies in developing a new approach to Dthe public sphere in musicology. Using definitions of a public sphere developed by political and cultural historians, my workmg definition of the public sphere e is that of a specific historical development during the Enlightenment in which a conceptual space emerged between the state and private home where texts (including musical texts) were disseminated, discourse flourished, and institutions such as the public opera house were founded.

Nevertheless, when Ullmann’s work is viewed within the artistically evolving context of the interwar period – a formative era in Ullmann’s life – new light is shed on his artistic achievements.
