Resumen
PRADA DUSSAN, Maximiliano. Approach to meaning of the word musica in the works of St. Agustín. Franciscanum [online]. 2014, vol.56, n.161, pp.17-49. ISSN 0120-1468.
Augustine wrote the dialogues De musica and De ordine in order to explain music as a science. Traditionally, these are the main sources on the topic Augustine's music due to its systematic, extension and relevance among subsequent writers. Nevertheless, the bishop of Hippo referred to music in many other works. This paper reviews in detail the way he used the latin word music on his texts. We will show that these other quotations help us to understand not only the idea of science but also: 1. The ontological structure of the created world. 2. The idea of 'musicians' and 3. The organological theory and musical forms.
Palabras clave : St. Augustine; Music; ontology; organology; musical forms.
