Title: Hudobná ontológia: otázky, diskusie a metodologické prístupy
Author: Lisa Giombini

Abstract:

Musical Ontology: Issues, Debates, and Methodological Approaches


This paper explores fundamental questions in the ongoing debate about musical ontology, focusing on its nature, scope, underlying methodology, and significance. The primary aim is to map out the main issues under discussion, identify the principal sources of contention, and explain why engaging in these debates is meaningful. The paper is structured as follows. Section 1 introduces some key questions at stake in the ontology of music debate, inviting readers to engage with a case study. Section 2 defines the scope and aims of musical ontology, outlining the various accounts offered in the field. Section 3 clarifies the main challenges about music that all these ontological accounts are required to address. Section 4 discusses the methodological problems in assessing these different views. Section 5 addresses some critical viewpoints about the significance of musical ontology. The paper concludes in Section 6 by positing a proposal for a ‘weak’ ontological approach that outwins criticism by integrating history, ontology, and aesthetics.
