The author deems musical appreciation as an intrinsic human capacity founded on sensitivity and repeated exposure to music. To enhance appreciation, the book examines factors such as counterpoint, thematic work, the leitmotif, musical form (i.e., sonata, rondo), and instrumental effects, each of which contribute to the depth and enjoyment of music. The author positions musical appreciation as a combination of inherent susceptibility and learned understanding, an interplay that can significantly enrich our experience of music.

The author chose to differentiate the European regions between the North/Northwestern peoples from the Central/Southeast (aka Dinaric, or Adriatic) races, or those speaking Germanic languages compared to those speaking Romance languages. He primarily refers to them as Teutonic and "Graeco-Latin." ** "Most prominent among the Aryan races are the Graeco-Latins and Teutons : besides the ancient Greeks and Romans, the former comprise the ItaHans, Spaniards, Portuguese, French, and Wallachians ; the latter include the Germans, English, Dutch, and Scandinavians. Though resembling one another in many respects when compared with non-Aryan peoples, these races exhibit striking differences of character and institutions when contrasted inter se." ** Although both writing style and topic seem outdated, yet the book continues to be printed, and is prized for its perspective and detail. This first edition is then a rare treat, and a lovely addition to a collector's library, particular dealing with European history, philosophy, and cultural anthropology. ** Cleveland native Albert Gehring (1855-1939) was an American writer and teacher of both philosophy and music, making memorable contributions to both. ** 237 pp. 5.75 X 8 inches. * Postage for oversized and international shipping will be calculated by size and weight.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the concept of shadows and their relationship to the tangible world, delving into philosophical perspectives and drawing parallels to our own experiences. The author posits that we often perceive only the superficial aspects of life, while the deeper truths lie hidden like shadows. By examining the illusory nature of possessions and the importance of inner values, the book challenges us to reconsider what truly constitutes a meaningful existence. The author argues that our happiness and well-being are less dependent on external circumstances than on our own perceptions and emotional states, emphasizing the importance of inner fulfillment over material accumulation. With thought-provoking insights and a blend of philosophy and real-life examples, this book invites readers on a journey of introspection, urging them to seek substance beyond the shadows.
