Music and the Muses: The Culture of Mousike in the Classical Athenian City
Murray
What was the role of mousike in Greek life? Broader in its implications than English 'music', mousike, the realm of the Muses, lay at the heart of Greek culture. These essays analyse the political, religious, and ethical significance of musical performance in the classical Athenian city, and open up a new field of investigation in cultural history.
