Summary
  • "This issue of 'Lapham's Quarterly' poses the long-deferred follow-up question. How and why is music the most powerful and liveliest of the arts, the utmost reach of human expression, the stuff of which dreams are made, and, if ancient philosophers and modern physicists are to be believed, also the stuff that binds body with soul? The text and illustration in the issue, an orchestration for 165 voices in time on the staff of three-millennia, find music everywhere at the heart of human society, urging men into battle, arranging them in states of wild abandon and sacred ceremony, feeding them the foods of love."--Page 14
  • "'Lapham's Quarterly' embodies the belief that history is the root of all education, scientific and literary as well as political and economic. Each issue addresses a topic of current interest and concern--war, religion, money, medicine, nature, crime--by bringing up to the microphone of the present the advice and counsel of the past."--Publisher description
