500 ## - GENERAL NOTE
General note This a first translation and critical edition of the G?t?lam?k?ra, a reference work and the oldest known treatise on the theory of music and its codification in India, cited by such later treatises as the N?t?ya ??stra. The G?t?lam?k?ra enables us to reconstruct the evolution of music in India through an archaic and singular terminology that identifies r?ga as varn?a, prior to Greek and Muslim influences. The interest of the study is threefold: historical, linguistic and musicological. It is characterized by extreme technical clarity, a total lack of mythological citations and a categorization of musicological elements based on the human voice and not on any musical instrument. The present translation (in French) derives from the only known manuscript of the text. The original text is reproduced in the n?gari script; the introduction and a large number of explanatory notes provide a transcription of the scales in the European system. The book includes an appendix and index.
