Bibliography: Incluye referencias bibliográficas e índices.Summary: "Music has been an object of philosophical enquity since the beginning of philosophy. Reading Plato's Republic for the first time, students are often surprised to find that he devotes so much space to music's influence on personal character and social harmony. For Plato and his contemporaries, an account of music was important to issues in metaphysics and epistemology, and philosophy of music was intertwined with moral and political philosophy, and thus, in turn, with basic issues in psychology. Ancient Greek speculation about music also encouraged two millennia of exploration of its relationship with mathematics and, perharps surprisingly, cosmology and astronomy. Philosophy of music was an important concern for most of the major philosophers of the "modern" period that extends from the scientific revolution until the early twentieth century. It is no exaggeration to say that philosophy of music was central to aesthetic debates in the nineteenth century. This volumen demonstrates that this área of aesthetics is not a historical relic. In the past few decades, there has been exponential growth in philosophy of music. As Stephen Davies memorably put in 2003: "If medals were awarded for growth in aesthetics in the last thirty years, the philosophy of music would win the gold." Part of this trend arises from the fact that many of the leading aestheticians, such as Davies himself, Peter Kivy, and Jerrold Levinson, have been primarily interested in music. Another reason is the expanding interests of those writing philosophically about music. In addition to the traditional questions of musical aesthetics, there is a burgeoning interest in under-explored areas, such as "impure" music -song and film music, for instance- and musical traditions other than Western classical music -rock, jazz, Balinese gamelan, and so on." (p. [xxii])
