About

Patricia Milewski is a PhD candidate with an interest in seventeenth century song culture.


Research

Patricia’s doctoral dissertation is dedicated to the lyrical production of an early modern woman author, named Gertrud Möller (1641–1705), whose poetry was set to music primarily by composer Johann Sebastiani (1622–83) in two volumes of sacred and secular songs (Parnaßblumen, Part 1 1672; Part 2 1675).The two volumes are artifacts of early modern German vernacular song culture. Moreover, they constitute a unique example of collaboration between a female poet and a male composer that has largely been overlooked in literary and musicological research to date. Patricia’s research advances existing scholarship on early modern song culture and the creative practices and literary production of early modern women authors.
