  • Publisher : Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
  • Release : 2017-05-20
  • ISBN : 1554588197
  • Pages : 192 pages

Download or read book Essential Song written by Lynn Whidden and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2017-05-20 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Audio Files located on Soundcloud Essential Song: Three Decades of Northern Cree Music, a study of subarctic Cree hunting songs, is the first detailed ethnomusicology of the northern Cree of Quebec and Manitoba. The result of more than two decades spent in the North learning from the Cree, Lynn Whidden’s account discusses the tradition of the hunting songs, their meanings and origins, and their importance to the hunt. She also examines women’s songs, and traces the impact of social change—including the introduction of hymns, Gospel tunes, and country music—on the song traditions of these communities. The book also explores the introduction of powwow song into the subarctic and the Crees struggle to maintain their Aboriginal heritage—to find a kind of song that, like the hunting songs, can serve as a spiritual guide and force. Including profiles of the hunters and their songs and accompanied (online) by original audio tracks of more than fifty Cree hunting songs, Essential Song makes an important contribution to ethnomusicology, social history, and Aboriginal studies.

Book In the borderland between song and speech

Download or read book In the borderland between song and speech written by Håkan Lundström and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-28 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of vocal expressions in the borderland between speech and song, based on performances from cultural contexts where oral transmission dominates. Approaches drawn from perspectives belonging to both ethnomusicology and linguistics are integrated in the analysis. As the idea of the performance template is employed as an analytical tool, the focus is on those techniques that make performance possible. The result is an increased understanding of what performers actually do when they employ variation or improvisation, and sometimes composition as well. The transmission of these culture-specific techniques is essential for the continuation of this form of human communication and interaction with the spirit world. By comparative study of other research, the result of the analysis is viewed in relation to ongoing processes in society.

Book Wild Pedagogies

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bob Jickling
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2018-06-22
  • ISBN : 3319901761
  • Pages : 140 pages

Download or read book Wild Pedagogies written by Bob Jickling and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-22 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores why the concept of wild pedagogy is an essential aspect of education in these times; a re-negotiated education that acknowledges the necessity of listening to voices in a more than human world, and (re)learning how to dwell in a place. As the geological epoch inexorably shifts to the Anthropocene, the authors argue that learning to live in and engage with the world is increasingly crucial in such times of uncertainty. The editors and contributors examine what wild pedagogy can truly become, and how it can be relevant across disciplinary boundaries: offering six touchstones as working tools to help educators forge an onward path. This collaborative work will be of interest to students and scholars of wild pedagogies, alternative education and the Anthropocene, and for all those engaged in re-wilding education.
