The Cambridge History of Music



图书简介：
 
作为剑桥音乐史系列的一部分，本卷以两种重要方式脱离了早期现代西方音乐的标准史。首先，它将音乐视为人们在日常生活中经历的事物，无论是作为音乐家还是听众，将音乐视为在特定地点以及不同的智力和意识形态背景下发生的事情，而不是视为流派、个别郡县、作曲家和他们的作品。其次，通过将讨论限制在100年的时间范围内，十六世纪的音乐文化摆脱了对‘文艺复兴’抽象概念的传统的（和不充分的）吸收。相反地，人们对音乐文化的理解开始基于欧洲动荡时期的更广泛叙事的近期发展。本卷既是对早期音乐中某个著名时期的原创演绎，又是学者们的重要参考作品，对音乐史作出了重要贡献。
 
Part of the seminal Cambridge History of Music series, this volume departs from standard histories of early modern Western music in two important ways. First, it considers music as something primarily experienced by people in their daily lives, whether as musicians or listeners, and as something that happened in particular locations, and different intellectual and ideological contexts, rather than as a story of genres, individual counties, and composers and their works. Second, by constraining discussion within the limits of a 100-year timespan, the music culture of the sixteenth century is freed from its conventional (and tenuous) absorption within the abstraction of 'the Renaissance', and is understood in terms of recent developments in the broader narrative of this turbulent period of European history. Both an original take on a well-known period in early music and a key work of reference for scholars, this volume makes an important contribution to the history of music.
•     Provides an alternative to conventional 'composers and works' histories of music
•     Readers can understand the material without having to be able to read music
•     Offers chapters by ten different authors, specialists in their respective fields
