Sendo uma obra de juventude, o autor deve ter estudado sobre música em sua formação, principalmente no colégio de La Flèche. Convencionalmente, têm-se a obra de Gioseffo Zarlino como a principal fonte, devido a ser citada no Compendium; no entanto, os estudos em torno do texto têm relativizado essa influência. Como o texto parte de uma definição de música e oito proposições sobre as quais o restante é desenvolvido, verificar como estas aparecem em outros tratados da época permite deduzir as possíveis fontes musicais utilizadas pelo autor. O trabalho inicia com uma necessária reconstituição do contexto filosófico e musical de sua época; seguida de uma análise sobre as concepções jesuíticas de conhecimento e música. Dessa forma, pode-se verificar o que motivou o autor a escrever sobre música, como os debates em torna desta. A semelhança de sua obra madura, o texto propõe uma virada metodológica o qual só é percebido tendo em mente o contexto de época. Após uma interpretação tanto da definição de música como das oito proposições, pode-se compará-las com outras obras da época para verificar suas fontes musicais. Com esse processo pode-se evidenciar a influência de Aristóteles, Aristóxeno de Tarento, Jean de Murs, Pontus de Tyard, Gioseffo Zarlino e Francisco de Salinas. / The first work that René Descartes wrote was the Compendium Musicæ in 1618, this was his first experiment with the future cartesian method. As a work of youth, the author must have studied music in your education, mainly in the college of La Flèche. Conventionally, the work of Gioseffo Zarlino had been considered the main source, because was cited in the Compendium. Since the text starts with music´s definition and eight propositions, about which the rest of work was developed; check the way that them appear in other treatises of the time could help to deduce the possible musical sources that the author used.This dissertation starts with a necessary reconstitution of philosophical and musical context of the epoch, followed by an analysis of jesuits conceptions of knowledge and music. In this way, it can be considered what motivated the author to write about music, as his the debates. In resemblance to his mature work, the text proposes a methodological turn that is only perceived with the context of the time in mind. After an interpretation of the definition of the music and the eight propositions, it could be possible compare with the others works form the epoch to verify his musical sources. With this process, it could evidence the influence of Aristotle, Aristoxenus, Jean de Murs, Pontus de Tyard, Gioseffo Zarlino and Francisco de Salinas.

O debate humanista das práticas artísticas no Renascimento italiano fomentou especialmente no século XVI uma das mais complexas e profícuas elaborações textuais da produção tratadística da música. A contextualização teórica daquela prática musical bem como a investigação do papel dos seus artífices profissionais e diletantes, objetivos dessa pesquisa, pretende situar analiticamente a partir das publicações quinhentistas impressas em língua italiana e latina o exercício e a formação epistêmica do antigo músico. Fundamental ferramenta para a compreensão dos tratados tanto escritos por músicos profissionais quanto por diletantes cortesãos, a Retórica é chave de leitura do \"texto além do texto\" e conhecimento também comum àqueles autores que, apresentavam em suas publicações, além do domínio técnico esperado, extenso aparelho humanista. Ao confrontar as disciplinas e habilidades fomentadas pelo estudo da musica prattica italiana com a studia humanitatis comum a cortesãos e músicos durante o Renascimento, pretendemos demonstrar bibliograficamente o alto grau de importância dos conhecimentos extrínsecos à pura ação do instrumentista ou cantor, explicitando os elementos retóricos, poéticos e científicos contidos naquelas edições musicais italianas. Uma vez que o próprio entendimento de música e músico é complexamente diverso e amplo naquele contexto, é coerente recuperar tal horizonte de sentido - conceitos e ideias - através dos documentos musicais artísticos e inartísticos que expõem, além das sede argumentorum filosóficas, as emendas e os tópicos visitados e empreendidos na redação dos tratados. Literariamente, o tratadista humanista, também referido à época como perfetto musico, age como um gentil-homem que transita discursivamente entre os nobres cortesãos de seu tempo, elaborando e amplificando o discurso técnico com vistas ao decoro de seus leitores e ao fim do seu ofício. Por essa razão, é oportuno considerar as disciplinas práticas do exercício do músico no Renascimento como parte de uma complexa rede de conhecimentos, na qual é proeminente o discurso e suas poéticas, empreendendo a recuperação das preceptivas e do arrazoado quinhentista daquele exercício artístico. / The humanistic debate of artistic practices in the Italian Renaissance, especially in the sixteenth century, fostered one of the most complex and fruitful textual elaborations of music treatises. The theoretical contextualization of that musical practice, as well as an investigation on the role of their professional and dilettante musicians, which are the goals of this research, aim at analytically contextualizing the epistemic formation of Renaissance musicians based on 16th century publications printed in Italian and Latin. An essential tool for understanding the treatises in question, Rhetoric is the appropriate tool for reading the \"text beyond the text,\" in addition to being common knowledge to those authors who showed a broad humanistic baggage in their publications, as well the expected technical mastering. By paragoning disciplines and skills fostered by the study of Italian musica prattica and the studia humanitatis among courtiers and musicians in Renaissance, we intend to bibliographically point out the high degree of importance of extrinsic knowledge to the pure action of players or singers, explaining the rhetorical, poetic, and scientific elements contained in those Italian musical editions. Since the very understanding of music and musicians is intricately diverse and broad in that context, it is fair to recover that horizon of meaning--concepts and ideas--through artistic and non-artistic musical documents that outline, beyond the philosophical sedes argumentorum, amendments and topics dealt with in those treatises. Literarily speaking, the humanistic musician, also referred to, at the time, as a perfetto musico, acts as a gentilhuomo who moves, discursively speaking, amongst the nobles and courtiers of his time, developing and broadening technical discourse in view of the decorum of his readers and for the sake of his craft. Therefore, it is appropriate to consider the practical disciplines of Renaissance musicians\' exercise as part of a complex network of knowledge that highlights the poetic speech, recovering preceptives and 16th-century reasoning behind that artistic exercise.

The purpose of this study is to provide a practical English translation of Vincenzo Galilei's significant treatise on ancient and modern music (1581). In spite of the important place this work holds in the history of music, it has never before been made available in its entirety in any language other than the original Italian. This volume includes the front matter and chapters 1-3.

This volume includes chapters 4-6, with an index and bibliography for the entire dissertation.

The Renaissance theorist Gioseffo Zarlino and his theoretical treatise Le istitutioni harmoniche were a vital link to the future of theory. His polyphonic music and ten text underlay rules are representative of the new music of the Venetian School, which was headed by his mentor Adrian Willaert. Examination of Zarlino's thirteen extant madrigals provides us with a direct example of these rules and the secular style of the Venetian School, who strived to elevate their secular works to that of sacred music. The style was inspired by Pietro Bembo's Petrarchan revival, in which Renaissance composers utilized medieval Petrarchan texts or wrote new texts in the Petrarchan style. The texts were set to music which was composed to express the emotions of the texts. Zarlino accomplished this through the selection of major, minor, and diminished sonorities, which began the move to major-minor tonality in the history of Western music.

This dissertation questions the dominant role that analogies to painting have played in the critical reception of the Italian madrigal—especially its flagship technique, the madrigalism—and argues for a more historically sensitive approach to sixteenth-century discussions of music–text relations in that genre. This approach centers rhetoric, understood broadly to encompass theories of style and subject matter, emotional response, and fictional representation, as the primary field of study to which musicians turned in their efforts to theorize musical expression. In its final chapter, the dissertation suggests that this rhetorical saturation of discourse around madrigals also to some degree influenced the composing of madrigals. Chapter 1 traces the outlines of what I call the “Galileian critical tradition” between the publication of Vincenzo Galilei’s 1581 "Dialogo della musica antica, et ella moderna" and the present. This tradition is characterized by a tendency among writers to dismiss the madrigalism on expressive grounds and, as time passes, increasingly in visual terms. Returning to the sixteenth century, chapter 2 argues that the phrase “imitating the words” (imitare le parole), which was adopted by Galilei, Gioseffo Zarlino, and others in the mid- to late Cinquecento to describe those novel techniques for the musical representation of text commonly seen in madrigals, acquires an affective connotation, in addition to its descriptive meaning, when placed in the context of contemporaneous literary studies of imitation (mimesis), especially those stemming from the recovery of Aristotle’s "Poetics." This affective dimension of the imitation principle, first theorized by Aristotle but creatively elaborated by his Renaissance commentators, highlights the cognitive pleasure that humans, because of a natural affinity for imitation, take from fiction—a species of pleasure, I suggest, relevant to the musical practice that “imitating the words” names. Turning from pleasure to passion, chapter 3 makes a case for the presence of a “two-stage model for emotional arousal” (as I call it) in sixteenth-century Italian music theory. Surveying this model’s foundation in physiological, rhetorical, and natural-philosophical texts, I show how Zarlino adapted its principles to musical purposes in his 1558 "Istitutioni harmoniche" and then trace the afterlife of Zarlino’s theory across a number of texts, including both music theory treatises and an epic poem. Chapter 4, finally, analyzes a late Cinquecento madrigal cycle—the three settings in Giaches de Wert’s "Ottavo libro de madrigali a cinque voci" (1586) from the “Armida” episode of Torquato Tasso’s "Gerusalemme liberata" (1581)—as a series of musical “stimuli” for listener responses patterned on the theoretical discussions studied in chapters 2 and 3. In its attention to the close-knit relationship between the expressive qualities of Wert’s music and the emotions they invite, this chapter follows the example of the ancient rhetorical tradition and its sixteenth-century inheritance, which emphasize the role of human psychology in determining the orator’s art.

Die ersten Diskussionen musikalischer Modulation oder Ausweichung von einer Tonart zu einer anderen finden sich nicht in Kompositionslehren, sondern in Generalbasstraktaten. Dabei erscheinen diese neuen Konzeptionen grundsätzlich bei Autoren, die auch neue Tonartensysteme anerkennen. Es gibt keinerlei Verbindungen zu früheren Begriffen wie mutare il modo (Zarlino) oder Mutatio toni und Alteratio modi (Bernhard). In England und Frankreich, wo sich auch die ersten Tonartkategorisierungen nach Moll und Dur finden, zeigen sich ab 1667 erste Beschreibungen von Modulation im neueren Sinne. Matthew Locke gab 1673 noch keine Regeln, aber Notenbeispiele für Übergänge von einer Tonart in eine andere. Gasparini 1708 und Heinichen 1711 geben Vorzeichenregeln. Erst mit Rameaus Traité von 1722 und seiner Anerkennung charakteristischer Dissonanzen für Dominante und Subdominante werden Regeln für Modulation auf eine neue Basis gestellt. / The first discussions of musical modulation or transition from one key to another are not to be found in composition primers but in thorough bass treatises. These new concepts generally appear with authors who also offer new key systems and have no relations to earlier terms of mutare il Modo (Zarlino) or Mutatio toni and Alteratio modi (Bernhard). It is in England and France, where we also find the first key categorizations according to major and minor, that – from 1667 – we find the first descriptions of modulation in the modern sense. Matthew Locke in 1673 did not give rules but musical examples for transitions from one key to another. Gasparini in 1708 and Heinichen in 1711 give rules of accidentals. Only with Rameau’s Traité of 1722 and his recognition of characteristical dissonances for dominant and subdominant that rules for modulation receive a new basis.
