Analyzing the evolution of the iconography of such a phenomenon as mesmerism in the second half of the 18th — mid-19th centuries, the author shows that the scenario of modern hypnotic representation and its gestures were established by mesmerists in the second half of the 18th century, followers of the parascientific theory that caused discussions and intrigued doctors and artists for centuries. Analyzing the development of the iconography of mesmeric seance, the author identifies two waves of popularity of this subject: the first wave in the 70–80s of the 18th century and the second wave duri

Abstract:
The article constitutes the first part of a cycle devoted to keyboard instruments with hammer mechanism made between 1730 and 1780. The author’s intention is presenting a wide perspective of selected topics on keyboard instrument making in the 18th century and the influence of how instruments were made on music practice at that time. The aim seems justified due to scarce publications on this subject available in Polish, among other reasons. The first chapter briefly outlines general aspects of the 18th century music culture which was the background of the development of instrument making. As f

This article focuses on the use of sinfonia and ouverture as terms in the Baroque era. Its relevance is due to the fact that an objective picture of the Baroque musical culture is impossible without studying authentic terminology, including terms used as names of musical works or their sections. Since there have been no special musicological publications on this topic, information obtained as a result of the study can expand the traditional ideas about what the terms sinfonia and ouverture meant in the 17th and the first half of the 18th century.

This period of ninety years represents an era of special importance in the development of music theory in Mexico. It was during this time that the old modal system was finally abandoned in favor of the new tonal system and that Mexican authors began to pen music treatises which could be favorably compared with the imported European treatises which were the only authoritative source of instruction

This thesis sets out to show that a philosophical reflection on history is, in the strongest possible way, an essential feature of Hume's project of a science of human nature: a philosophical investigation of human nature, for Hume, cannot be successful independently of an understanding of the relation of human beings to their history. Hume intended to criticize traditional metaphysics by referring all knowledge to experience. But it is almost always assumed that Hume means by "experience" the result of an individual's past sense perception or personal observation. Accordingly, Hume's criticis

With the trend toward rational enquiry, the re-affirmation of the Aristotelian theory of imitation, and a return to the ideal of a union of the arts, 18th-century theorists and composers were once again preoccupied with the consanguinity of the "sister" arts of poetry and music. In particular, analogies were made between their materials of expression and the methods by which they achieved their u

Abstract:
The presence of the theatre of the Spanish Siglo de Oro in the theatre and literary culture of Germany (or the German-speaking countries) in the 17th and 18th centuries is a multifaceted one, and was influenced by many factors. We have to take in account that in the second half of the 17th century and in a large part of the 18th century Spain had been a terra incognita for the Germanic world. This long lack of basic knowledge led to a decontextualization of the Golden Age theatre and sometimes to an unconditional enthusiasm that was not based on historical realities. The protagonists of the ‘construction’ of a ‘Spanish national theatre’ included Lessing, Herder, Goethe, the Schlegel brothers and the philosopher Schelling, the most prominent German intellectuals of the time. Within this ‘construction’ Lope de Vega, Rojas Zorrilla and, above all, Calderón de la Barca are the three icons that will guide both the theory and the practice of drama during the ‘two most Spanish decades’ of German literary history (1790-1810), even reaching - in the secularized world of the classics and the first generation of German Romantics - the ‘deification’ of Calderón as perfect poet and author of modern tragedies (without paying much attention to his comedias in a stricter sense and without taking account of his autos sacramentales).

Abstract In the body of this book I have presented the details of the history of violin playing from its origins to the middle of the 18th century in connexion with the development of the violin, bow, and music concerned. Is this information of more than historical interest? The answer to this question depends very much on the readers of this book and especially on the attitude of individual violinists toward performance. Some violinists say in effect, ‘I play the music just as I feel it’ -an intuitive approach. Others wish to base their interpretation, as far as possible, on the intentions of the composer, and play accordingly. Naturally, no performer’s attitude is ever quite as simple or clear-cut as this, but, nevertheless, these two points of view are basic. They are also fundamentally opposed.

Abstract This chapter explores singing in educational contexts in Norway from historical and contemporary perspectives. It is a metastudy that draws from several empirical sources, including historical and current curricula, a nationwide survey of singing in schools, case studies of selected schools, and a survey concerning the experiences of students of education and their attitudes toward singing. As a point of departure, the following question was developed: What role or position has singing had in the Norwegian school system throughout its history, from the earliest statutory education in the 18th century until today? The analysis focuses on how singing is used and legitimized both by means of curricula and the actions and views of educators. Theoretical perspectives from the field of music education illuminate the analysis. The aim of the study is to acquire knowledge about school singing, historically and today.
