Rock and Roll Writing

Editat de Dr Adrian Grafe, Dr. Andrew McKeown
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 aug 2024
This book embraces the multiplicity of forms of writing inspired by rock and roll, and in particular addresses forms of writing that are often decentered and considered atypical but in which rock and roll is the subject. Exploring a diverse range of formats including rock autobiography and gender, race and class in American rock journalism, rock obituaries, rock literature and spirituality, rock writing and promotion/packaging, and more, this book identifies and prioritizes writing forms often excluded from the categorization of rock music writing. The scope of the book goes beyond rock journalism in order to take in many other forms of expression that can also be considered "writing," such as album notes, gig reviews, rock biopics, and concert/tour programs and gives equal consideration to commercial and critical writing and fiction, memoir, and fantasy writing. Vitally, the volume places rock and roll writing within a wider cultural frame often overlooked by studies of traditional white male-led music journalism.
