This chapter expands upon the precedent one and proposes several ways to classify musical topoi. Before going into the sequence of musical references from a rhetorical (Chap. 3 ) and from a dramaturgical viewpoint (Chap. 4 ), here the focus stays on categories that exist outside of the temporal flow: topical fields, styles, and isotopies. These three categories encompass a variety of musical signs and topoi that share a common semantic correlate. Similar classifications can also be found in other art forms—typically in narrative and in drama, where they arguably originate. Unlike the next two discourse-related chapters, topical fields, styles, and isotopies belong to an abstract, semiotic realm that has only a subtle connection to performance and rhetoric.

摘要

This chapter expands upon the precedent one and proposes several ways to classify musical topoi. Before going into the sequence of musical references from a rhetorical (Chap. 3 ) and from a dramaturgical viewpoint (Chap. 4 ), here the focus stays on categories that exist outside of the temporal flow: topical fields, styles, and isotopies. These three categories encompass a variety of musical signs and topoi that share a common semantic correlate. Similar classifications can also be found in other art forms—typically in narrative and in drama, where they arguably originate. Unlike the next two discourse-related chapters, topical fields, styles, and isotopies belong to an abstract, semiotic realm that has only a subtle connection to performance and rhetoric.
