Music in the French Royal Academy of Sciences: A Study in the Evolution of Musical Thought (Princeton Legacy Library, 844) - Hardcover
This book describes a colorful period in French social and cultural history, during which music and science combined to provide the intellectual and aesthetic spirit of the Age of Enlightenment with an enormous vitality. Investigating the place assigned to music in France's preeminent scientific institution, the Paris Academy, the author shows the role played by the scientific movement in the evolution of musical thought prior to the Revolution.
Originally published in 1982.
