Abstract
It is evident that via the blood certain ideas can be carried to the brain, which then lodge themselves in there so firmly that they can hardly be expelled. This can be observed in the so-called canine rage, which arises from the bite of a rabid dog, as well as that which arises from the sting of a tarantula or of other especially enraged animals. This is what causes lycanthropy etc., in which patients take on the manner of the animal whose idea they received through their saliva or other fluid.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Musicological Research publishes original articles on all aspects of the discipline of music: historical musicology, style and repertory studies, music theory, ethnomusicology, music education, organology, and interdisciplinary studies. Because contemporary music scholarship addresses critical and analytical issues from a multiplicity of viewpoints, the Journal of Musicological Research seeks to present studies from all perspectives, using the full spectrum of methodologies. This variety makes the Journal a place where scholarly approaches can coexist, in all their harmony and occasional discord, and one that is not allied with any particular school or viewpoint.
