Figures

We regret that at this time, the illustrations are unavailable, pending their being marked to identify them in case of unauthorized copying. Dr. Bröcker has been very kind to allow us distribute her work on the internet, and it is essential that her interests in the illustrations should be maintained against unauthorized use.

There are extensive graphic figures in the original work. Line drawings and other diagrams are included in the text. The other illustrations, photographs, music examples, and facsimiles of manuscripts are found in the pages below.

Illustrations are arranged into pages each containing ten scanned images from the original. The "Previous chapter" and "Next chapter" links at the tops of the pages lead to the previous and next sets of graphics.
