Roger North's The Musicall Grammarian 1728, first published in
1990, is a treatise on musical eloquence in all its branches. Of
its five parts, I and II, on the orthoepy, orthography and syntax
of music, constitute a grammar; III and IV, on the arts of
invention and communication, form a rhetoric; and V, on etymology,
consists of a history. Two substantial chapters of commentary
introduce the text, which is edited here for the first time in its
entirety: Jamie Kassler places his treatise within the broader
context not only of North's musical and non-musical writings but
also their relation to the intellectual ferment of the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries and Mary Chan describes physical and
textual aspects of the treatise as evidence for North's processes
of thinking about musical thinking.
