Jewish Music and Modernity
ISBN: 9780199946846 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Is there really such a thing as Jewish music? And how does it survive as a practice of worship and cultural expression even in the face of the many brutal aesthetic and political challenges of modernity? In Jewish Music and Modernity, Philip V. Bohlman imparts these questions with a new light that transforms the very historiography of Jewish culture in modernity. Based on decades of fieldwork and archival study throughout the world, Bohlman intensively examines the many ways in which music has historically borne witness to the confrontation between modern Jews and the world around them....

ISBN: 9780226236032 / Angielski / Mixed media product / 2016 / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Many regard jazz as the soundtrack of America, born and raised in its cities and echoing throughout its tumultuous century of progress. So when Ernest Hemingway wrote about seeing jazz in 1920s Paris, and when British colonial officials danced to jazz in the clubs of Calcutta in the waning years of the Raj, how, exactly, had it gotten there? Jazz Worlds/World Jazz aims to answer these questions and more, bringing together voices from countries as far flung as Azerbaijan, Armenia, and India to show that the story of jazz is not trapped in American history books but alive in global...

Music and the Racial Imagination
ISBN: 9780226702001 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 703 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) "A specter lurks in the house of music, and it goes by the name of race," write Ronald Radano and Philip Bohlman in their introduction. Yet the intimate relationship between race and music has rarely been examined by contemporary scholars, most of whom have abandoned it for the more enlightened notions of ethnicity and culture. Here, a distinguished group of contributors confront the issue head on. Representing an unusually broad range of academic disciplines and geographic regions, they critically examine how the imagination of race has influenced musical production, reception, and scholarly...
