    Book Details:
  • Author : Raymond Ammann
  • Publisher : LIT Verlag Münster
  • Release : 2012
  • ISBN : 3643801300
  • Pages : 316 pages

Download or read book Sounds of Secrets written by Raymond Ammann and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2012 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Double flute, shoulder flute, and large standing slit drums with carved decorations are only a few of the unique musical instruments used in the islands of Vanuatu. In many ways, the people of this South Pacific archipelago live according to their traditional cultures and conduct their rituals and ceremonies as their great-grandfathers had. This book deals comprehensively with traditional musical instruments and their role and function in ceremonies on Vanuatu. Music, dance, and musical instruments are not only means to highlight certain moments in ceremonies, but help to set up an entire network of secrets. The field notes, personal opinions, and ideas that are documented in this book are the result of an intensive study of over 20 years on music in south Melanesia. This is the first reference book on the music of Vanuatu that constitutes an invaluable source for musicologists and anthropologists alike, and it will surprise general readers with its interesting and lively accounts.

Book Androgynous Objects

Download or read book Androgynous Objects written by Maureen A. MacKenzie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-25 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Androgynous Objects explores the way meaning is encoded in material culture by focusing on the androgynous symbolism of the looped string bag, or bilum, of the Telefol people of Central New Guinea. The web of meanings 'woven' into the bag is shown to extend beyond women's lives and bodies. It is open to manipulation and reformation in a variety of contexts and is used by both Telefol women and men to explore, and so explain the complexities and ambiguities inherent in their social life.
