Description

Explore how music transcended mere sound to become a cornerstone of Roman philosophical thought with this comprehensive study from Cambridge University Press. From Philo of Alexandria to the final Neoplatonists, this book traces the evolution of musical ideas through different philosophical movements, including the Platonic revival under Plutarch and Alexander of Aphrodisias's contributions to the field. Rather than treating concepts like harmony, concord, and attunement as simple metaphors, the author demonstrates how these musical notions functioned as essential philosophical tools for understanding fundamental aspects of existence and reality in the Roman Empire.

Key Features

Covers major Roman philosophical traditions from Philo of Alexandria through the late Neoplatonists, providing comprehensive historical scope.

Examines how harmony, concord, and attunement evolved from musical concepts into critical philosophical instruments across the Roman Empire.

Published by Cambridge University Press, ensuring scholarly authority and rigorous academic treatment of the subject matter.

Explores the Platonic revival movement through Plutarch and traces its influence on Roman musical philosophy and thought.
