Condizione: as new. A new critical text and translation on facing pages, with an introduction, annotations, and indices verborum and nominum et rerum by Philip E. Schreur. Lincoln : University of Nebraska Press , 1989. Orig. cloth binding. xii,122 pp. 24 cm. Includes bibliographical references. (Greek and Latin music theory). - This is a critical edition and English translation of an important fourteenth-century Latin treatise on musical notation. investigates figuraespecialised note shapes and rhythmic symbols developed to express increasingly complex rhythmic relationships in medieval polyphonic music. It proposes a notational system that combines elements of French and Italian practice, enabling musicians to represent simultaneous combinations of different mensural and prolation schemes. The book includes facsimiles of manuscript notation, allowing readers to compare the theoretical explanations with their historical written forms. The work belongs to the intellectual and musical culture of the late fourteenth century, when the Ars nova had transformed European approaches to rhythm, mensural notation, and polyphonic composition. French and Italian notational traditions developed partly along separate paths, while composers explored increasingly intricate rhythmic patterns. In the late fourteenth-century style known as Ars subtilior, such rhythmic complexity became particularly pronounced. This treatise is an attempt to systematise this complexity through a unified set of notational signs. Although its proposed system did not become widely adopted, the treatise provides valuable evidence of contemporary efforts to make sophisticated rhythmic practices theoretically intelligible and practically notatable.
