Mapping the Beat by Andrew Herman
One of the most vibrant and exciting new areas of academia inquiry falls under the cross disciplinary category of cultural studies. Within this field, popular music has been commonly analyzed to understand our world through the social dynamics, cultural production and consumption of popular music. Recent works on popular music studies examine the institutional and economic limitations that define popular music. Other works have addressed the textual aspects; representations and symbolic meaning in popular music as reflected in contemporary society. Other books look solely at the phenomenon of fandom and music subcultures. This collection cuts across all these ways of analyzing culture and is done through looking at spaces of noise and places of music. Included in this volume are some of the best cultural theorists and their reflections on modern life through music and representation.| SKU | Unavailable |
