Open call for dossier: THEORIES, POETICS AND PRACTICES OF EARLY MUSIC

The Working Group: Theories, Poetics and Practices of Early Music, in partnership with the Art Research Journal – ARJ, invites researchers and research groups to submit proposals for scientific articles, reviews and interviews related to the theme Theories, Poetics and Practices of Early Music to integrate the next dossier of the ARJ.

Considering the fact that the notion of Early Music can be quite broad, for this dossier, we delimit its meaning in the following terms: we deal with music produced, practiced and thought of in the context of the Ancien Régime, that is, those music typical of European monarchies from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, both Catholic or Protestant, present in the seats of political and religious powers and in their various ramifications, including more or less peripheral states and colonies. We emphasize studies devoted to the recovery of references, concepts, ideas, processes, techniques, artifices and artifacts from past times, places, and cultures, which come to us in ruins, in the form of scores, manuals, treatises, instruments, letters, paintings and all kinds of records, documents and historical vestiges. Considered from a hermeneutic perspective, these diverse materials, in connection, allow us to glimpse this past and understand it in our present time, from the fusion of their own horizon of meaning and ours, as readers, listeners and practitioners of this music today.

All articles, reviews or interviews submitted to the dossier must attend the conditions defined by ARJ, as well as its formatting criteria. All guidelines are available on the Journal's website. 

IMPORTANT: All submissions for this dossier must be gathered by the organizers and sent to the editor of the Journal. Therefore, these submissions should be addressed to the e-mail dossiearj.musicaantiga@gmail.com and not to the electronic system of the Journal. This procedure will be adopted to distinguish works directed to the dossier from other works submitted in a continuous flow regime to the Journal. Submissions for the dossier will be received until 06/17/2022. Further information can be obtained on the Journal's website or through the e-mail dossiearj.musicaantiga@gmail.com.
