By concentrating on Ficino’s and Patrizi’s work, the book chronicles the emergence of a new musical reality between the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, a reality in which beauty and the complementary idea of celestial harmony were gradually replaced by concepts of expressivity and emotion, that is to say, by a form of idealism that was ontologically more subjective than the original Pythagorean and Platonic metaphysics.Brill's Studies in Intellectual History234.Music theoryHistory15th centuryMusic theoryHistory16th centuryPhilosophy, RenaissanceHarmony of the spheresRenaissanceItalyHumanismItalyElectronic books.Music theoryHistoryMusic theoryHistoryPhilosophy, Renaissance.Harmony of the spheres.RenaissanceHumanism781.092/245Prins Jacomien915630MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463640003321Echoes of an invisible world2052596UNINA
