The long shadow of Emmy Wellesz

Emilia Franciska Stross (1889-1987) had married Egon Josef Wellesz (1885-1974) in Vienna in August 1908. She was known as Emmy both informally and in documents such as the university records. As it was published in the summary article below, her dissertation exemplifies work being done in Josef Strzygowski's 'I. Kunsthistorisches Institut der Universität Wien' during the time when Heinrich Glück (1889-1930) was active there. Since her life and career were intertwined with that of her husband, she also provides evidence of the influence of art historians on musicology in the early 20th century.
