This book studies the Jesuit culture in Silesia and Klodzko (Glatz)
County by focusing on its musical works and traditions. The
strategies adopted by the Jesuits achieved notable results in the
artistic traditions they cultivated, first of all a creative
redefinition of musical culture itself, at various levels of its
organization. While allowing music to exert influence on human
activity, the Jesuits had to accept that its impact would depend on
the peculiarities of local possibilities and conditions. This is
why they analysed the qualities of music and its culture-forming
potential in such detail and precisely defined its norms and modes
of functioning. The impact of music can be observed in the
transformations that the cultivation of musical culture brought
about in the model of the Order itself, as well as in individuals,
communities, and the time and space that defined them.
