As a distinguished scholar of Renaissance music, James Haar has had
an abiding influence on how musicology is undertaken, owing in
great measure to a substantial body of articles published over the
past three decades. Collected here for the first time are
representative pieces from those years, covering diverse themes of
continuing interest to him and his readers: music in Renaissance
culture, problems of theory as well as the Italian madrigal in the
sixteenth century, the figures of Antonfrancesco Doni and
Giovanthomaso Cimello, and the nineteenth century's views of early
music. In this collection, the same subject is seen from several
angles, and thus gives a rich context for further exploration. Haar
was one of the first to recognize the value of cultural study. His
work also reminds us that the close study of the music itself is
equally important. The articles contained in this book show the
author's conviction that a good way to address large problems is to
begin by focusing on small ones. Originally published in 1998. The
Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology
to again make available previously out-of-print books from the
distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These
editions preserve the original texts of these important books while
presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The
goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access
to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books
published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
