Musicology and Musical Analysis Classical Philosophy and Thought Historical Philosophy and Science

Abstract

Godwin traces the history of the idea, held since ancient times, that the whole cosmos, with its circling planets and stars, is in some way a musical or harmonious entity. The author shows how this concept has continued to inspire philosophers, astronomers, and mystics from antiquity to the present day.
