Jahr trough Sass: contributions to a novel understanding of bioethics and the arts.
Abstract
In 2013 Hans-Martin Sass published an article, the first known to be written by Fritz Jahr, in which the German shepherd, who conceived the term bioethics, had the opportunity to explore the power of music as a teaching tool for small children. An English version translated by Irene M. Miller and by Sass himself, which included the musical scores and illustrated the recitative passages suggested by Jahr, was also translated into Spanish and spread throughout Latin America, resulting in a strong influence on the understanding of the origins of bioethics and the arts[i]. This article, a tribute [Festschrift] to the work of Hans-Martin Sass, explores within the same text a variety of senses and perspectives of the original one, summarizing the inspirations received by Jahr from music, painting and literature.
