| Abstract: | The article focuses on two significant works: a critique of contemporary cultural politicization through the lens of music and a detailed analysis of John Zorn's file-card compositions. The first part discusses a book that critiques the politicization of culture, referencing notable figures like Mahler and Schubert, while also highlighting some inconsistencies in the text. The second part reviews "John Zorn's File Card Works," which explores Zorn's innovative use of file cards in composition, emphasizing the narrative potential within his music and the analytical methods employed by the author. The analysis argues for the importance of narrative in Zorn's works, countering claims of postmodern meaninglessness, and presents a structured examination of selected pieces.
