Aprašymas

Theory for Ethnomusicology, Second Edition, is a core text for upper level courses on ethnomusicological theory and provides a straightforward explanation of the basic orientations and their relationships to one another. The study also describes how ethnomusicologists have utilized these theories in their ethnographic research, exploring the particular circumstances of the theoretical application in ethnomusicology, with practical applications presented in an easy-to-understand format.

This second edition expands examples and explanations of the uses of the theories since the first edition appeared in 2008 and interweaves a number of new topics, and with more honored ethnomusicologists. The first chapter (Inquiry in Ethnomusicology) has been significantly expanded. Chapter 6 (Marxist Explanations in Ethnomusicology), Chapter 10 (Gender, Ethnicity, and Identity Issues in Ethnomusicological Theory), and Chapter 13 (Postmodern, Postcolonial, and Global Issues in Ethnomusicology) have been reorganized, and two chapters entitled Theories of Participation: Groove, Musicking, and Flow, and Sound Studies and Voice Studies are new.

Celebrated ethnomusicologist Ruth Stone offers a concise introduction and is joined by colleague Harris Berger in this edition to present the major strands of thought that have developed over the last century.
