Funded Activity Summary

Experience versus authority: science, musical theory and observation in Grocheo's De Musica and intellectual upheaval in the 13th century. The project will help break down disciplinary divisions between those interested in medieval musicology, the history of science and the history of ideas by bringing together specialists from all three domains. The production of an interdisciplinary monograph devoted to an upheaval in thinking in 13th century Europe, in which experience challenged arguments from authority, will deepen awareness of the interconnectedness of the musical, scientific and intellectual traditions inherited by Western culture. It will also encourage international recognition of the innovative capacity of Australian scholars to engage in interdisciplinary research, and provide an opportunity to nurture early career and postgraduate researchers within this country.
