English summary: From the mid-15th to the late 16th century, the polyphonic mass was considered both in practical and theoretical terms to be the central form of expression of Western art music, within which key compositional developments took place. Around 1500, moreover, there developed a sensitivity for the effective use and functionalisation of polyphonic music in both spiritual and secular ceremonies and rituals. This volume examines the polyphonic mass as an instrument for effective symbolic public communication within liturgical, artificial, denominational and political parameters, taking the style and history of the genre into account. German text. German description: Die polyphone Messe galt von der Mitte des 15. bis zum Ende des 16. Jahrhunderts in der praktischen Musikausubung und ihrer theoretischen Reflexion als die zentrale Ausdrucksform der abendlandischen Kunstmusik, innerhalb derer sich die massgeblichen kompositorischen Entwicklungen vollzogen. Um 1500 reifte zudem die Sensibilitat fur eine wirkungsvolle Anwendung und Funktionalisierung mehrstimmiger Musik im Rahmen zeremonieller Akte und Ritualsequenzen sowohl geistlicher als auch weltlicher Art. Dieser Band untersucht die polyphone Messe als Instrument zur symbolisch vermittelten, offentlichkeitswirksamen Kommunikation im Spannungsfeld liturgischer und artifizieller, konfessioneller und politischer sowie stilistischer und gattungsgeschichtlicher Parameter.
Dr. Andrea Ammendola ist seit 2021 Leiter des Stabsreferats Landesbibliothek an der ULB Münster.
