Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Literature in Parody: A Collection of Parody, Satire, and Literary Burlesque of American Writers Past and Present Some highly-regarded savants of an earlier and more principled generation than our own gave currency to the Opinion that the writer of parody was a rather shabby fellow practising an irreverent and parasitic art and an enemy within the gates of the true, the beautiful, and the good. According to this standard, the collector of parody, having not even the excuse of expressing his own aesthetic ego, must be one of the most abandoned of literary riff-raft It may be unnec essary in our enlightened era to say anything in self-defense for indulging in so irresponsible a pastime as editing parodies, but if it were, I would have little to say. It would be futile to deny that the parodist is out for a laugh at somebody's expense or that sitccessful parody can have a damaging effect upon the uninitiated. For the present volume I seek only the audience of the experienced who need no advice or justification from me. As for the uninitiated, they will endure, having little interest in so shady a profession as parody anyway. For me, however, the problem of parody is resolved as easily as Dr. Johnson disposed of the problem of free will - all theory is against it and all experience is for it.

Book Behind the Burnt Cork Mask

    Book Details:
  • Author : William John Mahar
  • Publisher : University of Illinois Press
  • Release : 1999
  • ISBN : 9780252066962
  • Pages : 476 pages

Download or read book Behind the Burnt Cork Mask written by William John Mahar and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The songs, dances, jokes, parodies, spoofs, and skits of blackface groups such as the Virginia Minstrels and Buckley's Serenaders became wildly popular in antebellum America. Behind the Burnt Cork Mask not only explores the racist practices of these entertainers but considers their performances as troubled representations of ethnicity, class, gender, and culture in the nineteenth century. William J. Mahar's unprecedented archival study of playbills, newspapers, sketches, monologues, and music engages new sources previously not considered in twentieth-century scholarship. More than any other study of its kind, Behind the Burnt Cork Mask investigates the relationships between blackface comedy and other Western genres and traditions; between the music of minstrel shows and its European sources; and between "popular" and "elite" constructions of culture. By locating minstrel performances within their complex sites of production, Mahar offers a significant reassessment of the historiography of the field. Behind the Burnt Cork Mask promises to redefine the study of blackface minstrelsy, charting new directions for future inquiries by scholars in American studies, popular culture, and musicology.
