| Abstract: | During the wave of translations of Greek texts, certain Arab thinkers and authors – following in the footsteps of newly rediscovered earlier traditions – took an interest in sound and related concepts. It was in this context that the term ‘music’ (musiqa) and the concept of the ‘Science of Music’ began to appear in the first theoretical texts in Arabic. Drawing on the thought of a number of important theorists, notably through half a dozen long extracts presented in the original Arabic and accompanied by a French translation, the author of this article summarises the evolution of a philosophical science of Music, Harmonics, towards a mathematical science of Music and then towards an independent science, before the texts sought less and less to refer to a scientific attitude. |
