Robert Fludd’s most famous work is the History of the Two Worlds (1617-21). The two worlds under discussion are those of the Microcosm of human life on earth and the Macrocosm of the universe. In the third book of the “Macrocosm” Fludd offered another interpretation of the structure of the universe, complementing his earlier alchemical visualisations, but expressed musically. He analysed what he claimed to be the Musica Mundana, the musical forms that pervaded and structure universal creation.
