Abstract

We tend to take for granted the labels we put to different forms of music. This study considers the origins and implications of the way in which we categorize music. Whereas earlier ways of classifying music were based on its different functions, for the past two hundred years we have been obsessed with creativity and musical origins, and classify music along these lines. Matthew Gelbart argues that folk music and art music became meaningful concepts only in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and only in relation to each other. He examines how cultural nationalism served as the earliest impetus in classifying music by origins, and how the notions of folk music and art music followed - in conjunction with changing conceptions of nature, and changing ideas about human creativity. Through tracing the history of these musical categories, the book confronts our assumptions about different kinds of music.

Abstract

Dans ses travaux d’histoire et d’esthétique, Célestin Deliège a toujours cherché à mettre en relation l’invention musicale avec son concept et ses représentations mentales. Les mutations de l’écriture ont parcouru tout le XXe siècle, de Debussy à Ferneyhough et Lachenmann. Cette période est ici réévaluée par l’auteur, en partant du pivot des années postweberniennes et de la recherche postérieure. La seconde partie du livre envisage la modernité sous l’aspect stylistique et celui du goût, en les opposant à la postmodernité, qui n’apparaît aux yeux de l’auteur que comme un accident probable de la modernité. En 1986, l’auteur publiait sous le titre Invention musicale et idéologies un premier recueil de textes d’esthétique écrits depuis 1959, assorti de quelques inédits. Les essais réunis ici sous le même titre sont la prolongation de séminaires tenus à l’IRCAM entre 1989 et 1994, en association avec l’EHESS, l’ENS et l’IRCAM.

Abstract

The ancient Romans changed more than the map of the world when they conquered so much of it; they altered the way historical time itself is marked and understood. In this brilliant and exhilarating book Denis Feeney investigates time and its contours as described by the ancient Romans, first as Rome positioned itself in relation to Greece and then as it exerted its influence as a major world power. Feeney welcomes the reader into a world where time was moveable and changeable and where simply ascertaining a date required a complex and often contentious cultural narrative. He investigates the pertinent systems, including the Roman calendar, which is still our calendar, and its near perfect method of capturing the progress of natural time; the annual rhythm of consular government; the plotting of sacred time onto sacred space; the forging of chronological links to the past; and, above all, the experience of empire, by which the Romans meshed the city-state's concept of time with those of the foreigners they encoun-tered and thereby established a worldwide web of time.
