- 1781, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Essai sur l’origine des langues:
- Rapportant toute l’harmonie à ce principe très simple de la résonance des cordes dans leurs aliquotes, M. Rameau fonde le mode mineur et la dissonance sur sa prétendue expérience qu’une corde sonore en mouvement fait vibrer d’autres cordes plus longues à sa douzième et à sa dix-septième majeure au grave.
- By reducing the whole of harmony to the very simple principle of the resonance of strings in their aliquots, M. Rameau bases the minor mode and the dissonance on his supposed findings that a vibrating sonorous string induces vibrations in longer strings at the lower twelfth and the lower major seventeenth.
