The harp in the Middle Ages. The symbolism of a musical instrument.
(Second Revised Edition. "In this study, Van Schaik succ...)
Second Revised Edition. "In this study, Van Schaik successfully separates the real from the symbolic in a way that illuminates the meaning of the symbol." Linda Simonson, Journal of the American Musical Instrument Society 17 " it contains a rich collection of materials and is sure to stimulate further discussion of musical symbolism in the Middle Ages." Elizabeth Aubrey, Speculum A Journal of Mediaeval Studies 69 " Lindagine, intrapresa con lo scopo di ampliare la conoscenza della tradizione e il significato del simbolismo dellarpa, è condotta secondo un criterio interdisciplinare che comprende teologia, musicologia, letteratura e storia dellarte..." Medioevo Latino XV " dans le cas des instruments de musique du moyen âge (et de la harpe en particulier) il est impossible den reconstituer la physionomie sans recourir aux filtres figurative et littéraire, bien que ceux-ci déforment parfois la réalité. Cest précisément à travers leur riche charge idéologique que Van Schaik livre sa contribution à létude de la harpe." Elena Ferrari Barassi, Cahiers de Civilisation Médiévale XXXVIII " a valuable addition to the few studies dealing with the symbolism of the harp particularly its chapters on terminology and the delta harp, about which little has been known hitherto. By virtue of its broad approach the book will be of interest not only to scholars investigating musical symbolism in the Middle Ages but also to medievalists in general." Zdravko Blaeković, Music & Letters 75/3 "La richesse et la diversité de la documentation sont dailleurs les atouts majeurs de louvrage de Van Schaik. Félicitons lauteur qui a osé sattaquer à un sujet complexe exigeant des connaissances dans les domaines de lorganologie, de la théologie, de lhistorie de lart et des littératures médiévales!" Henry Vanhulst, Revue Belge de Philologie et dHistoire 74
