Linked Sources: A Network Approach to The Repertory of Sixteenth-Century Polyphony (2014)

unapi

Abstract This paper presents the first results of the author's PhD research on how network theory can help musicology to understand the formation and transmission of musical repertories in the sixteenth century.[end Abstract] Musical manuscripts, prints, theoretical treatises and archival documents are primary resources to reconstruct musical practices from centuries ago. Working on networks of musical manuscripts and prints requires an intimate knowledge of the sources: their physical and visual characteristics, their content, and the historical context of their creation. All these different elements can be translated into entities and form an intricate network of relations amongst each other. In the current stage of my research, I am most interested in the content of the source, i.e. the compositions present in a source. These two are the entities of the network under scrutiny. Since one source contains several compositions, and one specificcomposition may be present in multiple sources, a bipartite network of sources and compositions comes into existence.
