Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

More than thirty years ago Hanslick swork Voni Musikalisch-S chonen put an end to the previous vague rhetorical declamation on the essence and object of music, and stimulated to keener reflection on the different factors which combine to produce that effect which music produces, Since then a pretty extensive literature has arisen, one portion of which retains Hanslick ssystem ofF ormalism that is to say, declares the form of music to be its substance ,while the other maintains that music is capable of rendering poetic ideas musically, and that that is its office, and rejects as an empty play with forms all music that will be merely music. In addition to these two schools, which until within a recent period were the only ones existing, a third one would seem of late to have come into existence. This school, in a certain sense, reconciles the contradictory views of the other two, not simply by way of compensation and compromise, but by giving a third definition which combines and materially perfects the other two. I became acquainted with those books, with whose positive results the following pages fairly coincide, only after I had written and partly delivered these lectures; I do not, however, regret this, because they undoubtedly would have influenced my train of thought, )T ranslated by G. Cohen and published by Novello under the title The Beautiful in Music
