More radically, holistic analysis itself was an attempt to define and legitimize the discipline of music analysis as a \u201cscientific\u201d endeavor and an independent branch of Soviet musicology. One of the distinctive trademarks of holistic analysis was its direct interest in engaging with music\u2019s signifying potential, which engendered\u00a0a blossoming of musical semiotics, and, specifically, of\u2014what in the West today is known as\u2014\u201ctopic theory.\u201d\u00a0Topics are musical \u201csigns,\u201d\u00a0commonplaces, or conventions, which are capable of extra-musical signification. They are elements of musical discourse, furnishing one possible access to meaning in music. Significantly, Soviet topic theory predates that in the West by some decades. My Spotlight talk explores the philosophy behind and ideology of holistic analysis, and then considers one of the analytical system\u2019s most important contributions.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-9711 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.stetson.edu\/brown-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/new-daniil-zavlunov.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" \/><\/em><i>Daniil Zavlunov<\/i>\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">is a musicologist specializing in nineteenth-century music, with a particular emphasis on the Russian and Italian operatic traditions.
