Worn Grooves     

Elodie A. Roy 《Media History》2018,24(1):26-45

Drawing from visual, material and written archival sources, this article critically explores some of the functions, uses and perceived values of recorded sound during the First World War and in its aftermath. An instrument of communication as well as commemoration, the gramophone helped bridge geographical (and, in some cases, cultural) distances between the home front and the rear, providing civilians with the fleeting illusion of presence, proximity, or even sentimental communion with the front. The article analyses (a) the affective and connective, but also propagandist, values of commercial wartime recordings as they circulated between the home and the front, (b) the popular notion of gramophones as regulatory instruments of civilisation, (c) the commemorative exploitations of recorded sound in the interwar period. The article focuses on the British experience, contrasting it with examples drawn from French and German experiences.  相似文献

Rethinking the legacies of Bandung     

Hilmar Farid 《Inter-Asia Cultural Studies》2016,17(1):12-18

By explaining the different trajectories that the “Bandung spirit” has taken since its inception in the mid-1950s, including various popular organizations that have not only been influenced by the Bandung conference but have taken the original ideas and actions into more progressive directions, it is argued in this article that the inclusion of the popular element is not only important to understand the history of the “Bandung spirit” but is also a necessary part of our thinking about the future of Bandung as a political project.  相似文献   

Eric Hobsbawm and the Significance of Jazz     

Roger Fagge 《Cultural and Social History》2013,10(5):745-762

ABSTRACT

This paper explores Eric Hobsbawm’s interest in Jazz, and argues that he helped popularise the music, gave it intellectual credibility and that his jazz writings are still relevant for jazz scholars and cultural historians. Jazz also influenced his view of history. Drawing on his recently catalogued private papers, it suggests Hobsbawm consistently argued for the historical significance of jazz, was flexible in the use of genre and subgenre and was aware of the role of the music business, and the way critics and writers helped shape the music’s meanings. The paper also argues that Hobsbawm wrote partly as fan, and that his penetrating analysis of jazz sometimes led him to undervalue other popular music forms.  相似文献   

Fats Waller Meets Harry Champion     

《Cultural and Social History》2013,10(4):495-509

ABSTRACT

Though left for dead in scholarly accounts, the inter-war music hall recovered from competition from the new entertainment forms of the 1920s to enjoy a greatly revived popularity in the 1930s. A comparative analysis of the repertoire and performance of two major stars of the 1930s, one American, one British, reconstructs the contemporary popular aesthetic of pleasure and sexuality. It assesses the impact of American styles, and the prominent position of the halls in a quickening debate over the people's pleasures and their place in national identity, at a time of international crisis and shifting social mores.  相似文献

教育·经典·大众文化     

陈平原 《邯郸师专学报》2006,(2)

“教育”既是一种社会实践,也是一种制度建设,还是一个专门学科、一种思想方式、一套文本系统。对于中国的现代化进程来说,教育思想的嬗变以及教育制度的转型,至关重要。一部作品之成为“经典”,除了自身的资质,还需要历史机遇,需要时间淘洗,需要阐释者的高瞻远瞩,更需要广大读者的积极参与。现代史视野中的教育与文化,决定了“现代中国教育”不可能安于校园一隅。“文学教育”必须介入当代文学进程和当下的思想文化进程,而不应局限于大学课堂和具体知识的传授。对于“大众文化”研究,我更倾向于在与精英文化的对话状态中,来讨论它;而不是将其孤立起来,越说越深刻,越说越伟大。理解二者之间的互相对立与互相转化,可以把事情说得更全面,课题做得更深入。  相似文献

‘We do not wish to be sofa cushions,or even props to men,but we wish to work by their side’: celebrating women as popular educators at the Anglican Church congresses 1881–1913     

Sue Anderson-Faithful  Catherine Holloway 《History of education》2019,48(2):180-196

ABSTRACT

The Anglican Church congresses sought to foster relations between clergy and lay people. They promoted the Church as part of the social fabric of the nation with parades, civic receptions, services and public talks. Women were a presence at the congresses as platform speakers, organisers, hostesses and members of the audience. Congresses provided opportunities for informal collaborations and networking between organisations including the National Union of Women Workers, Mothers’ Union and Girls’ Friendly Society. Dedicated women’s sections from 1881 provided a space that was exploited by women activists seeking a voice in the public sphere. The congresses reflected a context of increasing professionalisation amongst women. This article celebrates the contribution made by women in the role of popular educators via congress platforms between 1882 and 1913. In addition, the article seeks to commemorate the unvoiced presence of working class women who engaged with the congresses as members of the audience.  相似文献   

评波德里亚消费社会大众文化观     

李明 《安徽教育学院学报》2007,25(5):11-14

消费社会理论是波德里亚大众文化观的思想背景。波德里亚认为大众文化在本质上是一种消费文化,消费性是大众文化的本性。但波德里亚在具体阐述他的消费社会大众文化观时却显示出理论上的矛盾性。  相似文献
