The grotesque is one of art's most puzzling figures. In "The Miraculous Mandarin" and "Cantata Profana", Bartok engaged scenarios featuring either overtly grotesque bodies or closely related transformations and violations of the body. This book argues that Bartok's concerns with stylistic hybridity, the body, and the grotesque are inter-connected.
