# Archaelogies of the Future. The Desire called Utopia by Frederic Jameson

Image
I read this Fredric Jameson 's book six months ago, and I don't know why I forgot to post a small article about it since I have been extremely interested by its content at that time...

Her father was a piano teacher, who had groomed Clara for a solo career since infancy. This was the age of the great composer-pianists, Franz Liszt and Frederic Chopin, and little Clara also wrote original works for her own use. Clara's Op. 1, a set of four Polonaises, was published the following year. In 1840, over her father's strenuous objections, Clara eventually married composer Robert Schumann, a handsome young man who had moved into the Wieck household as a border just a month before Clara's 1830 Leipzig debut. Clara's own career as a composer and performer would eventually span five decades, and, like her father, she became one of the mo...
