Resum

Music and poetry are not part of the rational part of the soul, they go deeper than that. In Greek aesthetics, it plays a very important role. Right from Pythagoras, Plato and Aristotle, it has been placed at the centre of catharsis and politics. Despite the difficulty in establishing a precise concept of what music is in either philosophy or cosmology, or even as an aesthetic phenomenon, it is impossible to do without it if we want to understand Greek philosophy.
