The Science of Harmonics in Classical Greece
ISBN: 9780521879514 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 494 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The ancient science of harmonics investigates the arrangements of pitched sounds which form the basis of musical melody, and the principles which govern them. It was the most important branch of Greek musical theory, studied by philosophers, mathematicians and astronomers as well as by musical specialists. This 2007 book examines its development during the period when its central ideas and rival schools of thought were established, laying the foundations for the speculations of later antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It concentrates particularly on the theorists' methods and...

Scientific Method in Ptolemy's Harmonics
ISBN: 9780521028646 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book examines, for the first time, the scientific procedures devised by Ptolemy (second century AD) for investigating the structures underlying musical melody, a project that he conceived as closely related to astronomy. Ptolemy's account of his methods is unusually explicit, and he pursues them faithfully. By providing an analysis of Ptolemy's sophisticated theoretical apparatus, his strategies for integrating theory with observation, and his meticulous instructions for the design and conduct of experimental tests, the book offers historians of science a new starting-point for wider...

Fictions from an Orphan State: Literary Reflections of Austria Between Habsburg and Hitler
ISBN: 9781571135315 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. The literary flair of fin-de-siecle Vienna lived on after 1918 in the First Austrian Republic even as writers grappled with the consequences of a lost war and the vanished Habsburg Empire. Reacting to historical and political issues often distinct from those in Weimar Germany, Austrian literary culture, though frequently associated with Jewish writers deeply attached to the concept of an independent Austria, reflected the republic's ever-deepening antisemitism and the growing clamor for political union with Germany. Spanning the two momentous decades between the fall of the empire in 1918 and...

Porphyry's Commentary on Ptolemy's Harmonics: A Greek Text and Annotated Translation
ISBN: 9781107003859 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 590 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Porphyry's Commentary, the only surviving ancient commentary on a technical text, is not merely a study of Ptolemy's Harmonics. It includes virtually free-standing philosophical essays on epistemology, metaphysics, scientific methodology, aspects of the Aristotelian categories and the relations between Aristotle's views and Plato's, and a host of briefer comments on other matters of wide philosophical interest. For musicologists it is widely recognised as a treasury of quotations from earlier treatises, many of them otherwise unknown; but Porphyry's own reflections on musical concepts (for...

The Pharcyde's Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde
ISBN: 9781501321276 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As immediately believable as they were cartoonish, as much an inner city cipher as a suburban boys gang, the foursome that made up the Pharcyde were the most relatable MCs to ever pass the mic. On their debut and magnum opus Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde, they created a record almost overstuffed with possibility, the sound of four restless man-children fresh out of their teens, finding a perfect outlet in a form of music that was just as young and fertile. And like the product of any adolescent, Bizarre Ride wears its contrarianism and contradictions on its sleeve. It's...

Reason and Necessity: Essays on Plato's "Timaeus"
ISBN: 9780715630570 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Plato's Timaeus contains a powerful and influential myth, of the construction of the universe by a divine craftsman. A god imposes reason on necessity, to bring order from a primeval 'receptacle' of disordered matter. There results the 'child' that is the cosmos - a copy of an eternally-existing perfect model. Here eight new essays from a distinguished international cast, explore aspects of this challenging work: the principles of the mythical narrative, how the world soul and human body are formed, implications for illness - mental and physical, the importance of music and harmonious...
