Enrico Pasini deposited Perception, Imagination and Leibniz’s Theory of Will in the group
Renaissance / Early Modern Studies on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoThe role of insensible appetitions (similar to insensible perceptions, or petites perceptions) in Leibniz’s theory of appetite and will is sketched. Since such insensible appetitions are the medium of interaction, through the body, between the individual and the physical world, and the form in which, at a microscopic level, environmental…[Read more]

Enrico Pasini deposited Korrespondenten von G. W. Leibniz: 12. Detlev Clüver. Geb. um 1645 in Schleswig – Gest. den 21. Februar 1708 in Hamburg in the group
Renaissance / Early Modern Studies on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoDetlev Clüver (1645-1708) was among the first to criticize Leibniz’s new infinitesimal analysis. Although his criticisms were vague and his methods inconsistent, Leibniz had always for him a friendly sort of consideration. The article presents Clüver’s biography, writings, and thought, together with a detailed description of Leibniz’s relations t…[Read more]

Megan Lavengood commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoThanks to both of you for getting this important conversation started. It would certainly be worthwhile to explicitly discuss what our purpose is at the next meeting, and update both our mission statement and purpose statement, and I’ll add that to the agenda along with these suggestions.

Ciro Scotto commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group via email on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoHi All,
I agree with Trevor, and John has been making this point at the meetings for the last few years, that our “mission” has actually changed (and I won’t qualify this with somewhat) since the PMIG. Here are points that I believe are from the mission statement:
• Ensuring academic recognition for popular music research
• Encouragi…[Read more] -
Trevor deClercq commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoOh, OK. I didn’t know we had a “mission statement.” I think our “mission” has actually changed somewhat since the PMIG was founded, since popular music is now more of an established research area than it was years ago. Anyway, I think your addition of a fourth point would be sufficient, Megan. Thanks!

Enrico Pasini deposited Mathesis und Phantasie. Die Rolle der Einbildungskraft im Umfeld der Descartes’schen Regulae in the group
Renaissance / Early Modern Studies on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoA particular aspect of the confrontation between modern philosophy and the aristotelian tradition regards the so-called psychology of faculties. On this ground, it is for modern thought much harder, in comparison to the field of natural sciences, to differentiate itself from concepts, theories, and terminologies which characterize the still…[Read more]

Renaissance / Early Modern Studies on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoThe paper deals with Leibniz’s manuscript writings on the foundation of infinitesimal calculus since 1702: the mathematician’s late theory, and the preparatory works to his “Cum prodiisset atque increbuisset”, are presented. An edition of Leibniz’s unpublished DEFENSE DU CALCUL DE DIFFERENCES is provided as an Appendix.

Megan Lavengood commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoGood points here. The “purpose” was basically copy-pasted from our “mission statement” on the SMT website. We could make something pedagogy-oriented a fourth element in the article. Perhaps: “(4) to model and advocate for popular repertoire in music theory pedagogy”?

Megan Lavengood commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoThank you for your thoughts, Mitch!
1a—I’m fine with putting that in this draft. I don’t see any reason why people would oppose it being more inclusive. I think we should discuss that (along with the 3-year terms) at the meeting explicitly, though.
1b—I left them out just in case we want to add another award someday, so we don’t have to ame…[Read more] -
Trevor deClercq commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoWell done, Megan. I think this is great.
I agree with Mitch that the window for awards should be 3 years. Based on when an article is published and when the PMIG meets, the 2-year window might effectively be only a single chance to submit.
My only other suggested change is to add (or change) something in “Article II: Purpose” to more…[Read more]

Mitchell Ohriner commented on the doc Working Draft — Proposed Bylaws in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoGreat work on this, Megan! Some points for consideration:
1. Awards.
a. The term on SMT awards is 3 years, as opposed to the 2 here. As a subfield, I can easily imagine a banner year producing multiple works we’d want to recognize and the 3 year window would allow for that. Of course, it would also increase the workload of the committee but I…[Read more] -
Megan Lavengood started the topic proposed bylaws in the discussion
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 6 years, 8 months agoHello! At our next meeting, I would like to vote in some bylaws. While bylaws are not at present common in the SMT Interest Groups, I think it may be the right time for our group, for a few reasons:
- I am proposing a change to term length and the number of officers.
- Our group regularly gives awards, and the process for administration of the…
