課程簡介及目的 Class Introduction and Objectives

 

音樂在歐洲文化史中所扮演的角色,並非一直是我們認為的,聲音的藝術。本課程以原典閱讀為手段,探討音樂 (musica) 在歐洲歷史中不同面向的展現。

 

課程大致分為兩個部份:前半討論音樂從中世紀一直到十九世紀的不同呈現方式,課程後半為二十世紀中葉以來,將音樂當成符號、社會現實、政治實踐、以及人類生命真實的最高表現等。

 

This course focuses on how "music" has been regarded as a species of knowledge in European history. Through the ages whether as musica mundana or as actual sounding phenomena, music has been incorporated into different branches of knowledge. This course explores these different incorporations, including seeing music as display of mathematical laws, as linguistic signs, as social facts, and as the expression of philosophical "truth".
