Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Can melody alter the body, redirect the mind, or quiet violence This wide-ranging miscellany gathers anecdotes, historical narratives, reports, poems, legends and observations that treat music not merely as entertainment, but as a force acting upon physical, emotional, social and spiritual life. Accounts of music relieving fever, delirium and melancholy sit beside reflections on its power to excite, console, persuade and inspire forgiveness. Across domestic rooms, medical settings, theatres, churches, courts and concert spaces, the work follows music wherever its influence has been claimed or observed. Human responses are only part of its enquiry: elephants, mice, spiders, dogs, snakes, birds and other creatures appear as listeners sensitive to melody, rhythm, harmony, pitch and changes of mode. Moving through Europe and beyond, these varied pieces create an unusual record of music and animals, music and healing, and the elusive boundary between testimony, tradition and wonder. Performance and musical genius recur alongside religious music, national airs, professional rivalry and the influence of musicians upon rulers and communities. The shifting forms allow a medical report to stand near a biographical sketch, a poem near an anecdote, inviting comparison without forcing certainty upon music's powers or limits. Curious, contradictory and broad in scope, the collection preserves a world of claims about sound's capacity to disturb, restore, command and console. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure. N° de réf. du vendeur 9789377788568
