Sommario/riassunto

The Musical Topic discusses three tropes prominently featured in Western                European music: the hunt, the military, and the pastoral. Raymond Monelle provides                an in-depth cultural and historical study of musical topics -- short melodic                figures, harmonic or rhythmic formulae carrying literal or lexical meaning --                through consideration of their origin, thematization, manifestation, and



meaning.                The Musical Topic shows the connections of musical meaning to literature, social                history, and the fine arts.
