Michael Tippett's oratorio A Child of Our Time was written at the beginning of the second world war as an expression of man's inhumanity to man. This Handbook discusses the significant musical and literary features of this remarkable work within its specific historical, social and stylistic context. Attention is given to the shaping of Tippett's own text as well as its musical representation. Also of importance is the initial critical reception of the work, a reception that defined certain responses that still surround the work today.
