Francois Bernard-Mache here uses music-related myths and ancient as well as more recent history to show the underlying relationship between musical thought and certain natural laws. Using original analytical techniques, he sheds new light on the history of music, showing the presence of music in the animal world to demonstrate that Nature and culture are not in opposition.Born in 1935, Mache has made a name for himself as a composer and musicologist.

Music, Society and Imagination in Contemporary France provides new insight into the dominant creative elements of French contemporary music at the close of the 1980s. The collection includes thirteen essays drawn from a diverse range of authors, sketches by composers, musicological studies, and interviews, and a discussion of the universal problems of writing and technique. These elements have taken on an auxiliary role in contemporary music, as musical forms are no longer a primordial concern. The collection poses such challenging questions as whether music should be created for those who do

You can’t properly call yourself a gourmand (or even a minor foodie) until you’ve digested Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin’s delectable 1825 treatise, The Physiology of Taste: Or, Meditations on Transcendental Gastronomy. Brilliantly and lovingly translated in 1949 by M.F.K. Fisher (herself the doyenne of 20th-century food writing), the book offers the Professor’s meditations not just on matters of cooking and eating, but extends to sleep, dreams, exhaustion, and even death (which he defines as the "complete interruption of sensual relations"). Brillat-Savarin, whose geni
