Sound and Sentiment – Birds, Weeping, Poetics, and Song in Kaluli Expression, 3rd edition with a new introduction by the author

Autor Steven Feld
en Limba Engleză Paperback – oct 2012
This thirtieth anniversary edition of Sound and Sentiment makes Steven Feld's landmark, field-defining book available to a new generation of scholars and students. A sensory ethnography set in the rainforest of Papua New Guinea, among the Kaluli people of Bosavi, Sound and Sentiment introduced the anthropology of sound, or the cultural study of sound. After it was first published in 1982, a second edition, incorporating additional field research and a new postscript, was released in 1990. The third edition includes all of the material from the first two editions, along with a substantial new introduction in which Feld discusses Bosavi's recent history and reflects on the challenges it poses for contemporary theory and representation.

Recenzii

“A landmark in first presenting in detail the idea of an ethnography of sound.” Bruno Nettl, American Ethnologist“Sound and Sentiment is one of the greatest ethnographies ever written.” Charles L. Briggs, author of Stories in the Time of Cholera: Racial Profiling during a Medical Nightmare“An indisputable success and a masterpiece.” Roy Wagner, Language in Society“A compelling account of how music and culture are inextricably wedded to one another.” Daniel M. Neuman, Ethnomusicology“It penetrates with clarity a musical and linguistic maze to bring to life processes through which individual emotions become the wellspring for social and cultural structures, and social and cultural structures become the bedrock of the experiential world.” John Shepherd, Popular Music“A new departure point for ethnomusicology that reopens central questions . . . of the meaning of musical sound; of the presence of theory in nonliterate societies; of the importance of the use of the local language and appropriate modes of investigation in fieldwork.” Alan Thomas, American Anthropologist“One of the first books to successfully integrate ethnographic, musical, and linguistic analysis, Sound and Sentiment remains a model for such integration. In addition, it undergirds acoustemology, or the anthropology of sound, a scholarly tack that is accelerating, with no ritardando in sight.” Bonnie C. Wade, author of Thinking Musically: Experiencing Music, Expressing Culture“Sound and Sentiment continues to animate debates about sound, listening, and aesthetics across cultural and linguistic anthropology, ethnomusicology, performance studies, media studies, history, and folklore.” Louise Meintjes, author of Sound of Africa!
