"Musical Composition in the Twentieth Century" is comically oblivious to the meanings of the words it uses. On its page 335 it tells us that "[John Adams] is attracted to politically correct subject matter, not only in moving vocal settings like `The Word Dresser' (1989) but also in a pair of operas `Nixon in China' (1987) and `The Death of Klinghoffer' (1991), which are exemplary demonstrations of how real characters and events can be presented in imaginative and non-exploitative ways." The term "politically correct" is PEJORATIVE and means the OPPOSITE of "imaginative". A politically correct person is by definition a person afraid to think for himself.Well for that matter I suppose, a politically correct BOOK is a book much like this one, a book that wishes to ally itself with the bold and brazen but is itself halting and timid, a book that drops the names of other writers gratuitously and quotes them excessively and out of context.
