奥古斯丁在宇宙音乐的层面将万物的美定义为赞美上帝的声音,并认为理性的音乐是由可变的感性之数(受造之美)和无限的原因之数(美本身)构成的科学。人类对有限的感性之数(受造之美)的热爱导致无限的原因之数(美本身)的缺失,以及灵魂与上帝、肉体之间关系的失调。原因之数(美本身)主动帮助灵魂正确评估感性之数的价值并重构三者之间的关系,这就是上帝的救赎。因此,人类赞美上帝的声音——理性的音乐显现着精神的和谐之美和形而上之光辉。
Augustine at the level of cosmic music defines the beauty of all things as praising the voice of God, and holds that rational music consists of a variable number of sensations (created beauty) and infinite causes (beauty itself). The love of mankind for the limited number of sensations (the beauty of creation) leads to the absence of infinite causes (the beauty itself) and the imbalance of the relationship between the soul and God and the flesh. It is the redemption of God that the number of causes (Beauty itself) proactively helps the soul to properly assess the value of the perceptual value and reconstruct the relationship among the three. Therefore, human beings praise the voice of God - rational music reveals the beauty of the harmony of the spirit and the supremacy of the metaphysics.
