New Beginnings --$tBIBLIOGRAPHY --$tINDEX 330 $aThe fictional Dr. Strabismus sets out to write a new comprehensive theory of music. But music's tendency to deconstruct itself combined with the complexities of postmodernism doom him to failure. This is the parable that frames The Sense of Music, a novel treatment of music theory that reinterprets the modern history of Western music in the terms of semiotics. Based on the assumption that music cannot be described without reference to its meaning, Raymond Monelle proposes that works of the Western classical tradition be analyzed in terms of temporality, subjectivity, and topic theory. Critical of the abstract analysis of musical scores, Monelle argues that the score does not reveal music's sense. That sense--what a piece of music says and signifies--can be understood only with reference to history, culture, and the other arts. Thus, music is meaningful in that it signifies cultural temporalities and themes, from the traditional manly heroism of the hunt to military power to postmodern "polyvocality." This theoretical innovation allows Monelle to describe how the Classical style of the eighteenth century--which he reads as a balance of lyric and progressive time--gave way to the Romantic need for emotional realism. He argues that irony and ambiguity subsequently eroded the domination of personal emotion in Western music as well as literature, killing the composer's subjectivity with that of the author. This leaves Dr. Strabismus suffering from the postmodern condition, and Raymond Monelle with an exciting, controversial new approach to understanding music and its history. 606 $aMusic$xSemiotics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMusic$xSemiotics. 676 $a780/.1/4 700 $aMonelle$b Raymond$f1937-$0853800 701 $aHatten$b Robert$0994731 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455514503321 996 $aThe sense of music$92278330 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04326nam 22007332 450 001 9910450412403321 005 20151005020621.0 010 $a1-107-12804-8 010 $a1-280-16005-5 010 $a9786610160051 010 $a1-139-14592-4 010 $a0-511-11718-3 010 $a0-511-06618-X 010 $a0-511-05987-6 010 $a0-511-30701-2 010 $a0-511-51218-X 010 $a0-511-06831-X 035 $a(CKB)1000000000017946 035 $a(EBL)218150 035 $a(OCoLC)179083106 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000258946 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11210664 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000258946 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10273487 035 $a(PQKB)11607405 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9780511512186 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC218150 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL218150 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10069934 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL16005 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000017946 100 $a20090312d2003|||| uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aThomas Huxley $emaking the "man of science" /$fPaul White$b[electronic resource] 210 1$aCambridge :$cCambridge University Press,$d2003. 215 $a1 online resource (xiv, 205 pages) $cdigital, PDF file(s) 225 1 $aCambridge science biographies 300 $aTitle from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). 311 $a0-521-64967-6 311 $a0-521-64019-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 175-197) and index. 327 $a1.

Yet from the 1850s until his death in 1895, Huxley always defined himself as a 'man of science', a moral and religious figure, not a scientist. Exploring his relationships with his wife, fellow naturalists, clergymen and men of letters, White presents a new analysis of the authority of science, literature, and religion during the Victorian period, showing how these different practices were woven into a fabric of high culture, and integrated into institutions of print, education and research. He provides a substantially different view of Huxley's role in the evolution debates, and of his relations with his scientific contemporaries, especially Richard Owen and Charles Darwin. 410 0$aCambridge science biographies. 606 $aEvolution (Biology)$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aReligion and science$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aLiterature and science$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aNaturalists$zGreat Britain$vBiography 615 0$aEvolution (Biology)$xHistory 615 0$aReligion and science$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and science$xHistory 615 0$aNaturalists 676 $a570/.92 700 $aWhite$b Paul$f1961-$0129800 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450412403321 996 $aThomas Huxley$91903340 997 $aUNINA
