Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Elzbieta Witkowska-Zaremba (ed). Pages: 240 p.Illustrations:2 b/w, 50 col., 10 tables b/w., 2 tables col., 17 examples in colour Language(s):English Publication Year:2026. ISBN: 978-2-503-62488-4. Brepols. Paperback - Summary European theory of music up to ca.1550, in many respects, presents a history of the reception of Boethius’s treatise De institutione musica (before 510). The annotations introduced to this treatise by John Dunstaple (d. 1453), eminent composer of the late Middle Ages, add to our knowledge of the English chapter of this history. The volume is composed of two parts. The first part includes the edition of Dunstaple’s annotations paralleled with relevant parts of Boethius text and provided with the introduction comprising a detailed information on manuscript Oxford, Corpus Christi College 118 and the study of Dunstaple’s hand. In the second part of the book, the selected glosses which have the strongest interpretive potential are translated and examined in a large context of music theory of Middle Ages. They present Dunstaple as a careful and competent reader of Boethius’s arguments and a composer well-read in music theory current in his time.
