Abstract: Summary This chapter is not only a good test-case for the mathematization of elementary mu-sic concepts, it is above all a refined study of turning fuzzy concept sketches of the humanities into precise and consistent frameworks—without the expected side-effect of “terrible mathe-matical simplification”. In the present case of motives, our topic is—within the general task of grasping motivic phenomena—the construction of Rudolph Reti’s immanent motif analysis.
