Download or read book The Anglo Scottish Ballad and its Imaginary Contexts written by David Atkinson and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to combine contemporary debates in ballad studies with the insights of modern textual scholarship. Just like canonical literature and music, the ballad should not be seen as a uniquely authentic item inextricably tied to a documented source, but rather as an unstable structure subject to the vagaries of production, reception, and editing. Among the matters addressed are topics central to the subject, including ballad origins, oral and printed transmission, sound and writing, agency and editing, and textual and melodic indeterminacy and instability. While drawing on the time-honoured materials of ballad studies, the book offers a theoretical framework for the discipline to complement the largely ethnographic approach that has dominated in recent decades. Primarily directed at the community of ballad and folk song scholars, the book will be of interest to researchers in several adjacent fields, including folklore, oral literature, ethnomusicology, and textual scholarship.

Download or read book Scottish Ballads written by Emily Lyle and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This selection includes more than eighty of the finest ballads, together with an introduction, notes and glosses. The versions come from the last three centuries-from the time of Burns and Scott, who were among the earliest collectors, up to the present day. Although the ballads are anonymous in a way, the singers themselves determine the versions we have, by a process of selection, interpretation and refashioning. Wherever possible, this edition includes the names of the singers, many of whom were women. An internationally recognised ballad scholar, Emily Lyle is a research fellow at the School of Scottish Studies in the University of Edinburgh, and is general editor of The Grieg-Duncan Folk song Collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Scottish Ballads: With Essay on Scottish Ballad Literature And History of Scottish Ballad Literature. The subject is so rich and fertile that it has not been possible, within the prescribed limits of one volume, to include more than the very ower or cream of the compositions which the early Scot tishlballad writers and singers so profusely scat tered over the land, making it musical with the voice of many sorrows; but the Editor believes that the selection, limited as it is, will be found to contain an adequate proportion of the best and most popular of these rude and homely, but hearty and touching lyrics - not as they may have been from time to time improved by Percy, Scott, Hogg, and others, sometimes with more taste than reverence, and often with out either - but as they came from the mouths of the early singers themselves, long before they were committed to the press. The tempta tion to amend such compositions where the rhythm halts, or the rhyme does not jingle, and where, as in many instances, the correct reading is hopelessly lost, is great and trying to the self control of most editors; but in this respect Motherwell set an example of fidelity which the Editor of the present volume has scrupulously.
