Fragments and Meaning in Traditional Song
Author: Mary-Ann Constantine
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 9780197262887
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
This book takes a radical approach to the study of traditional songs. Folk song scholarship was originally obsessed with notions of completeness and narrative coherence; even now long narratives hold a privileged place in most folk song canons. Yet field notebooks and recordings (and, increasingly, publications) overwhelmingly suggest that apparently 'broken' and drastically shortened versions are not perceived as incomplete by those who sing them. Dealing with a wide range of traditions and languages, this study turns the focus on these 'dog-ends' of oral tradition, and looks closely at how very short texts convey meaning in performance by working the audience's knowledge of a highly allusive idiom. What emerges is the tenacity of meaning in the connotative and metaphorical language of traditional song, and the extraordinary adaptability of songs in different cultural contexts. Such pieces have a strong metonymic force: they should not be seen as residual 'last leaves' of a once-complete tradition, but as dynamic elements in the process of oral transmission. Not all song fragments remain in their natural environment, and this book also explores relocations and dislocations as songs are adapted to new contexts: a ballad of love and death is used to count pins in lace-making, song-snippets trail subversive meanings in the novels of Charles Dickens. Because they are variable and elusive to dating, songs have had little attention from the literary establishment: the authors show both how certain critical approaches can be fruitfully applied to song texts, and how concepts from studies in oral traditions prefigure aspects of contemporary critical theory. Like the songs themselves, this book crosses and recrosses the perceived divide between the literary and the oral. Coverage includes English, Welsh, Breton, American, and Finnish songs.

Intoxicated
Author: Terrey McCormack
Publisher: Paragon Publishing
ISBN: 1782228810
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Intoxicated is an uproarious and highly inventive comedy that is provocative, sometimes repellent, and certainly shocking throughout, but a novel filled to the brim with rewarding literary pleasures, written by a writer in complete control of the materials to hand. It is a novel unlike any other, outrageous in the extreme, scandalous and seemingly insane at times, a borderline abomination even, yet hilarious from cover to cover, which also makes it compelling and intimate. There are many different aspects to “intoxicated,” for the disordered pandemonium takes off when Francine Coy, the lavished-upon, money-intoxicated daughter of a wealthy 1960s ex pop-star from the fictional band The Wallbeats, himself a main character, yet one with very worrying, disturbing prejudices, with repugnant pleasures too, wakes at dawn (not like her) in one of her holiday-homes to get her gang under way towards their goal, which is a nano-injection each, giving them, she believes, and she believes it very firmly, a 300-year life-span. The clashing personalities then gradually deem the ultimate, destructive fate of the misplaced venture: namely, her deranged boyfriend, Joel Maize, her two mostly benign gay friends, Stevie and Bernie, and her monstrous father, Johnny Coy. Things are never as they seem, but when a sense of magic realism transfigures the possible in a great magician’s house, who is a huge black man named Susan, up on a dusty, remote hill, the plot becomes utterly astonishing via spiked sangria with LSD. Francine also discovers some disturbing truths about herself, but doesn’t have the capacity at that point to acknowledge them. Instead, she crashes down to earth in hot Gran Canaria when her father finally dies on the toilet, experiencing what appears to be a nervous-breakdown. These truths kick in later, beginning in London, and then, to the deep consternation of all, in Liverpool...
