Edwin A. Abbott's A Square

I understand and appreciate the three planes of listening that Copland had broken up for his readers, but the tone and manner in which some of the planes were discussed did not resonate well while I was reading this. Throughout almost all of the chapter, Copland’s tone was harsh and condescending towards the reader, as if he knew absolutely everything about music and the reader knew nothing. I am also not sure what it takes to be a “qualified music lover,” (Copland, 8) but I am sure that it is not much.

During this time, he began to publish works under the pseudonym Eirenaeus Philalethes, with whom he claimed acquaintance. He changed his name from Stirk to Starkey officially in 1650; and, though he was paid some sums of money under the name of Stirk after this, or was referred to as Stirk by various persons in letters to Robert Boyle and other associates (Newman, 173) it was the name he used for the rest of his

Another thing described in the first section is Flatland itself. Flatland is a 2D world home to the main character. In Flatland it is mandatory to have pentagonal shaped house to ensure safety. These houses have a separate door for men and women. One thing the U.S.A. has in common with Flatland is the use of cardinal directions. In Flatland they use the directions very differently though.
