THE NOTION OF A HARMONIOUS UNIVERSE was taught past Pythagoras equally early as the 6th century bc, and remained a basic premise in Western philosophy, science, and art virtually to our own day. In Touches of Sweet Harmony, S. K. Heninger outset recounts the legendary life of Pythagoras, describes his school at Croton, and discusses the materials from which the Renaissance drew its information about Pythagorean doctrine. The second section of the book reconstructs the many facets of this doctrine, and the final department shows its influence on Renaissance poetics. Private chapters treat the assumption that the poet is a maker acting in likeness of the creating godhead, that metaphor depends upon correspondences between various levels of creation, and that the poem serves as a microcosm in literary form.

The thought of cosmos, expressed as universal harmony—or equally a tetrad—was prominent in the Renaissance period and strongly conditioned its aesthetics. Therefore, the writer expresses his conviction that unless nosotros have the viability of a divinely- ordered universe, as did the sixteenth-century poet, we shall misinterpret much of the best writing in our language and much of the pregnant of Elizabethan verse will be lost.

Professor Heninger'southward magisterial work introduces the reader not simply to Pythagoras just to a host of other classical, medieval, and Renaissance figures every bit well—from Plato and Aristotle through St. Augustine and Macrobius down to Sidney and Spenser.
