Coles Music, Rhetoric and Christian Hebraism Early Modern Europe: Reuchlin's Reconstruction of the Modulata Recitatio at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

This book presents the first in-depth exploration of the relationship between music, rhetoric and Christian Hebraism, by re-appraising the significance of the first German humanist Johannes Reuchlin's study of Kabbalah and cantillation in the light of Renaissance rhetoric. Few studies have investigated how Renaissance humanists learned Hebrew language for the delivery ( pronuntiatio ) of the Hebrew Bible as an aural-oral tradition. Hyun-Ah Kim examines the way in which 'grammarian-philosopher' Reuchlin reconstructed the modulata recitatio of the Hebrew Bible and its underlying intellectual foundation. Consequently, Kim demonstrates the hitherto neglected Hebraic aspect of Renaissance rhetoric and its mystical implications that played a vital role in shaping a new theoretical framework for the 'art of accented singing,' an art which has changed European musical culture ever since. Music, Rhetoric and Christian Hebraism in Early Modern Europe elucidates why this nexus is essential for understanding the integral relationship between music, language and theological philosophy.
