But instead of regarding them as finished products or  examining their genesis, or `common ground', or `parallel' ideas,  opera and science are explored by a phenomenology of the formulations  of consciousness (Gurwitsch) as compossible tasks to be accomplished  in common (Schutz) which share an ideal possibility or `essence'  (Husserl). Although the ideas of Galileo and Monteverdi form the  parameters of the domain of phenomenological clarification, the scope  of discussion extends from Classical ideas of science and music down  to the beginning of the nineteenth century, but always with reference  to the experience of sharing the sociality of a common world from  which they are drawn (Plessner) and to which those ideas have given  shape, meaning and even substance. At the same time, this approach  provides a non-historicist alternative to understanding the arts and  science of the modern period by critically clarifying the idea of  whether their compossibility can rest on any other formulation of  consciousness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789048148479\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8931-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 282.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481525416076,"sku":"9789048148479","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048148479.jpg?v=1757633302","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789048148479","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
