Originally meant as part of a series of treatises on the liberal arts, it is especially important because of its presentation of metrics. Book six offers a theological discussion of perception based on the concept of numerus ("rhythm"). Thus, De musica is a fascinating document of Augustine’s intellectual development from secular learning to Christian philosophy CN ML168 SN 978-3-11-047146-5 K1 Music : Early works to 1800 : Philosophy and aesthetics K1 Music : Philosophy and aesthetics : Early works to 1800 K1 Music Theory : Early works to 1800 K1 antike Metrik K1 Augustinus von Hippo K1 freie Künste K1 Musiktheorie K1 RELIGION / Christian Theology / History K1 MUSIC / Instruction & Study / General K1 Religion / Christianity / History K1 MUSIC / History & Criticism K1 Augustine of Hippo K1 Liberal Arts K1 Ancient Metrics K1 Theory of Music DO 10.1515/9783110471465
