Description: Performing Folk Songs by Dr. Elizabeth Bennett Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description "The first book to explore folk singing from the perspective of performance studies, enabling original insights into the performance of folk songs, affect theory, archival research, autoethnography, intangible cultural heritage, and landscapes in performance"-- Publisher Description Performing Folk Songs is the first full-length volume to explore English folk singing from the perspective of performance studies. Using archival sources, family repertoire and recorded performances of interviewees, this book argues that archives and repertoires are produced in sensory environments and through embodied encounters. Autoethnography, sensory ethnography, life-writing and landscape writing are used to explore the affective and emotional aspects of learning songs by heart. Drawing on her experience as a folk singer, Bennett contributes to discourse on English folk traditions in the 21st century and brings performance scholarship to the contemporary folk song resurgence. In analyzing the performance of English folk songs in the affective context of the archive and the landscape, the book engages with and contributes original insights to scholarship on folk music, performance studies, affect theory, cultural geography and intangible cultural heritage studies.
