Autoren-Porträt von Alexander Wheelock Thayer
Alexander Wheelock Thayer (1817-1897) is widely regarded as one of the foremost biographers of the famed composer Ludwig van Beethoven. Born in South Natick, Massachusetts, Thayer was not initially a music historian. His early career started in law; however, his profound interest in Ludwig van Beethoven's music and life led him to abandon his law practice and devote himself to meticulous biographical research (Anderson, 1983). Thayer's multi-volume work 'The Life of Ludwig van Beethoven' volumes 1 through 3, first published between 1866 and 1879, represents a cornerstone in Beethoven scholarship. His commitment to factual accuracy and the use of primary sources marked a departure from earlier biographical accounts that often contained romanticized and unfounded anecdotes (Forbes, 1967). Thayer's magnum opus, rich in scholarly rigor, esteems him as the pioneering figure in Beethoven studies. Though he never fully completed the work himself, his foundational research was later expanded and edited into a final form by his successors. The approach Thayer employed in his biographical writing laid the groundwork for modern practices in historical musicology, influencing generations of music scholars and enthusiasts seeking to understand the life and genius of Beethoven.
