Musicology
Introduction Since my first interest was musicology, this page grew out of my work in that field. Items here are: links to other musicology pages (some Dutch ones). And secondly my M.A. thesis: Seventeenth Century Ideas on the Harmony of the Spheres: Robert Fludd, Johannes Kepler, and Athanasius Kircher. University of Utrecht, 1996. (Note: my thesis and the artikels are in Dutch.) Subjects I am interested in (and may develop further): * J.A.K. Colizzi’s Dissertatio de Sono. An 18th century booklet on acoustics, by the dutch court musician and amateur-scientist J.A.K. Colizzi.Translation and notes. * Johannes Scotus Eriugena and the beginnings of Polyphony. A bibliographical study on wheter or not Scotus hints at polyphony in his work De divisio naturae (9th century AD). * Gaudentius’ Harmonikê eisagogê. A study of or commentary on this 3rd century (AD) Greek treaty on the science of music. Publications " Rationalis, non Vocalis: Johannes Kepler en de Harmonie der Sferen.", in: Dutch Journal of Music Theory 7/1 (2002): pp. 1-10. " De mira harmonia planetarum.
