Since the Renaissance, scholars have attempted to reconstruct ancient Greek music mainly on the basis of literary testimonies. Since the late 19th c. evidence from inscriptions and papyri enriched the picture. This book explores the factors that guided such reconstructions, from Aristophanes’ comments on music to the influence of Roman music in late antiquity, thereby offering a crucial contribution to our understanding of ancient music’s legacy.
