Scope and content
Zuckerkandl examines the nature of singing and speaking via an investigation of space. He asserts that speaking is logical and concrete; it is connected to the visible world, whilst singing connects people to more abstract musical world. He asserts that both are needed in order for people to fully describe their relationship with the world.
