About the author

Antoine Fabre d'Olivet (December 8, 1767, Ganges, Hérault – March 25, 1825, Paris) was a French author, poet and composer whose Biblical and philosophical hermeneutics influenced many occultists, such as Eliphas Lévi, Gérard Encausse - Papus and Édouard Schuré.

His best known works are on the research of the Hebrew language and the history of the human race entitled The Hebraic Tongue Restored: And the True Meaning of the Hebrew Words Re-Established and Proved by their Radical Analysis, and Hermeneutic Interpretation of the Origin of the Social State of Man and of the Destiny of the Adamic Race. Other works of renown are on the sacred art of music entitled Music Explained as Science and as Art and Considered in its Analog Relationship with Religious Mysteries, Ancient Mythology and the History of the Earth, and a translation and commentary of Pythagoras's thirty-six Golden Verses.

Reviews

[Maan Kawas · Rating 5 out of 5]

Avery interesting book about unknown aspects of music. I particularly like this: "Music is not merely, as is imagined today, the art of combining tones or the talent of reproducing them in the way most pleasant to the ear: that is the practical side from which result the ephemeral forms... Music regarded in its speculative aspect is, as the Ancients define it, the knowledge of the order of all things, the science of the harmonic relationships of the universe; it rests on immovable principles which nothing can alter." I highly recommend this book.

There are many very interesting and ancient suppositions of the musical origins.
