Popis: | A brief account of the historical development of systematic musicology as a field of interdisciplinary research is given that spans from Greek antiquity to the present. Selected topics cover the rise of music theory from the Renaissance to modern times, the issue of harmonic dualism from Zarlino and Rameau to the 20th century and the controversy about physicalism versus musical logic in music theory. Sections of this chapter further relate to the notion of a system and the concept of systematic research (which is exemplified with respect to the work of Chladni, Helmholtz, Stumpf, and Riemann), and to the concept of Gestalt quality that spawned contributions to music perception from Gestalt psychology. In addition, some developments in music psychology outside the Gestalt movement as well as in the sociology of music are sketched, followed by a paragraph on modern research trends, which include semiotic, computational, and linguistic approaches to music perception and cognition as well as contributions from the neurosciences. A final paragraph provides some of the background that led to establishing systematic musicology as an academic discipline around 1870–1910, from where further disciplinary and scientific developments defined the field in the 20th century. |
