| Zusammenfassung: | Flora Levin explores how and why music was so important to the ancient Greeks. She examines the distinctions that they drew between the theory of music as an art ruled by number and the theory wherein number is held to be ruled by the art of music. These perspectives generated more expansive theories, particularly the idea that the cosmos is a mirror-image of music's structural elements and, conversely, that music by virtue of its cosmic elements - time, motion, and the continuum - is itself a mirror-image of the cosmos. These opposing perspectives gave rise to two opposing schools of thought, the Pythagorean and the Aristoxenian. Levin argues that the clash between these two schools could never be reconciled. Her book shows how the Greeks' appreciation of the profundity of music's interconnections with philosophy, mathematics, and logic led to groundbreaking intellectual achievements that no civilisation has ever matched. |

These opposing perspectives gave rise to two opposing schools of thought, the Pythagorean and the Aristoxenian. Levin argues that the clash between these two schools could never be reconciled. Her book shows how the Greeks' appreciation of the profundity of music's interconnections with philosophy, mathematics, and logic led to groundbreaking intellectual achievements that no civilisation has ever matched.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Music, Greek and Roman</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Music theory</subfield><subfield code="z">Greece</subfield><subfield code="x">History</subfield><subfield code="y">To 500.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Music</subfield><subfield code="x">Philosophy and aesthetics.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85088808</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Théorie musicale</subfield><subfield code="z">Grèce</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire</subfield><subfield code="y">Jusqu'à 500.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Musique</subfield><subfield code="x">Philosophie et esthétique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">MUSIC</subfield><subfield code="x">History & Criticism.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Music, Greek and Roman</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Music</subfield><subfield code="x">Philosophy and aesthetics</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Music theory</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Greece</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJxd6hw8HtWYq9JY6hjjYP</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Musiktheorie</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Griechenland</subfield><subfield code="g">Altertum</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">To 500</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Criticism, interpretation, etc.</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">History</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Greek reflections on the nature of music (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGf47FxxyJWpmdFmFX6xQm</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Levin, Flora R., 1924-</subfield><subfield code="t">Greek reflections on the nature of music.</subfield><subfield code="d">Cambridge ;

Print version record. Flora Levin explores how and why music was so important to the ancient Greeks. She examines the distinctions that they drew between the theory of music as an art ruled by number and the theory wherein number is held to be ruled by the art of music. These perspectives generated more expansive theories, particularly the idea that the cosmos is a mirror-image of music's structural elements and, conversely, that music by virtue of its cosmic elements - time, motion, and the continuum - is itself a mirror-image of the cosmos. These opposing perspectives gave rise to two opposing schools of thought, the Pythagorean and the Aristoxenian. Levin argues that the clash between these two schools could never be reconciled. Her book shows how the Greeks' appreciation of the profundity of music's interconnections with philosophy, mathematics, and logic led to groundbreaking intellectual achievements that no civilisation has ever matched.
