Description

Explore the historical shift in how music is perceived through this scholarly study from Springer. This book examines the transition from the ancient Greek view of music as a rational enterprise to the modern perspective of music as an artistic endeavor. At the center of this transformation is Joseph Sauveur, a mathematician who lived during the era of Newton and Leibniz. While historians recognize his foundational role in the evolution of music, much of his life and specific work remains understudied. This book fills that academic gap by providing a deep look into his contributions and his influence on the decline of the Greek paradigm. As a member of the Academie des sciences de Paris, Sauveur represents a unique link between mathematics and musical theory. This text is an essential resource for researchers, historians, and students interested in the intersection of science and the arts, offering a comprehensive look at a figure who helped reshape our understanding of sound and logic.
