From the Renaissance to the eighteenth century, humanists and their inheritors were fascinated by the musical eloquence of rhythm. The study examines this little-known aspect of musical rhetoric in Italy and Germany, demonstrating the role that language and Latin culture also played.

Review - French Pour les humanistes et leurs heritiers, la musique est eloquence et le musicien orateur : l'eloquence musicale, enjeu majeur de la composition, s'incarne dans l'execution, se percoit dans l'ecoute, se pense dans des ecrits varies. La question du rythme y joue un role essentiel et en ce domaine, la pregnance de la culture antique tout comme la pratique de la langue latine ont une incidence considerable sur les perceptions et les representations, qui relevent d'enjeux a la fois culturels, sociopolitiques et religieux. Cet ouvrage invite notamment a decouvrir, dans l'Italie et l'Allemagne des XVI, XVIIet XVIIisiecles, les traits inattendus de la prose musicale eloquente, ses courbures serpentines ainsi que la richesse de debats passionnes sur le meilleur style musical.
