 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Engelbert
The best known of Engelbert's works is his historicopolitical treatise "De ortu, progressu et fine Romani imperii", which was written during the reign of Henry VII (1308-1313).
He bewails the gradual decline of both imperial and papal authority, prophesies the early coming of Antichrist and with it the ruin of the Holy Roman Empire and a wholesale desertion of the Holy See.
The treatise was inserted by Gerbert in his "Scriptores ecclesiastici de musicâ sacrâ" (St. Blasien, 1784, anastatic reprint, Graz, 1905), II, 287 sqq.

 Lectionary Music
The treatise quotes from Gregory XVI, Pius IX and Pius X and their interpretations of the role of accompaniment.

The treatise, however, does allow for a little nationalistic or folk music to flavor the music of Divine Liturgy, but it tries hard to promote plainchant as the norm.

 Neoplatonism [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
In his last treatise, "On the Primal Good" (Ennead I.7), Plotinus is able to assert, in the same breath, that both life and death are good.
For this reason, we are sometimes surprised to see Plotinus, in one treatise, speaking of the cosmos as a realm of forgetfulness and error, while in another, speaking of the cosmos as the most perfect expression of the godhead.
The feeling of being thrown into a hostile and alien world is a philosophically valid position from which to begin a critique and investigation of human existence; indeed, modern existentialist philosophers have often started from this same premise.

In addition to that, it is an extensive treatise about music, in which the great musician sets forth his ideas.
