Abstract

" ... Presenting a range of fresh perspectives on the field, the chapters explore Jewish liturgy, klezmer, music in Israel, the music of Yiddish theater and cinema, and classical music from the Jewish Enlightenment through to the postmodern era. Additional contributions set Jewish music in context and offer an overview of the broader issues that arise in its study, such as questions of diaspora, ontology, economics, and the history of sound technologies."--Back cover.

Abstract

"The SAGE Handbook of Popular Music provides a highly comprehensive and accessible summary of the key aspects of popular music studies. The text is divided into 9 sections: Theory and Method; The Business of Popular Music; Popular Music History; The Global and the Local; The Star System; Body and Identity; Media; Technology; and, Digital Economies. Each section has been chosen to reflect both established aspects of popular music studies as well as more recently emerging sub-fields. The handbook constitutes a timely and important contribution to popular music studies during a significant period of theoretical and empirical growth and innovation in the field. This is a benchmark work which will be essential reading for educators and students in popular music studies, musicology, cultural studies, media studies and cultural sociology."--Publisher's description.

Abstract

Dix spécialistes de la théorie de la peinture, de la rhétorique et de l'esthétique se penchent sur ce texte fondateur de l'esthétique. Ils en analysent la dimension philosophique, moins marquée par un souci de métaphysique que par le déploiement de considérations anthropologiques permettant la compréhension des arts et de leurs paradoxes. ©Electre 2016
