E L E C T R O N I C M E S S A G E Date: 22-Nov-1993 03:14pm EST From: Stephen Hart HARTS2 Level: Post-secondary/University Tel No: 904-644-4839 TO: Remote Addressee ( _jnet%screen-l@ua1vm ) Subject: What's Up, Doc? Felicia Berke mentioned _What's Up, Doc?_ as a film with a scientist. I have a problem with that. Ryan O'Neil's character was a musicologist, and his discipline would be "the scholarly study of music" (cf. Harvard Dictionary of Music, 2nd ed.). Though the ends of such study would relate to music, it would not exclude studies in physical and natural sciences in certain topics. Still, a musicologist is not a scientist in the sense of the ones mentioned so far. What do you all think? Am I correct in my thinking or am I being too anal? My co-worker is a doctoral student in ethnomusicology. When she gets back, I'll talk to her and let you know what she thinks. Stephen Hart, Florida State Univ.
