Popular Music and the Poetics of Self in Fiction: Internationale Forschungen zur Allgemeinen und Vergleichenden Literaturwissenschaft, cartea 208

Norbert Bachleitner, Juliane Werner
en Limba Engleză Hardback – dec 2021
Popular Music and the Poetics of Self in Fiction explores the various links between the self and popular music in contemporary fiction. In the novels discussed in this volume, musical references go far beyond creating a tapestry of sound, they make literary characters come alive by giving an account of the physiological and psychological effects of their musical experiences and of their ways of life in different (sub)cultural and social groups. With plots revolving around songs and albums, musicians and bands, and fans and scenes, the thematic focus on the self encompasses the relation of musical taste and identity construction, popular music’s function as a medium of individual and collective memory, and its uses in everyday life across decades, spaces, and genres.
