Description

Explore the deep connection between English popular music and national identity in Mad Dogs and Englishness. Published by Bloomsbury, this academic work examines how music acts as both a commentary on and a creator of social meanings regarding Englishness. Through a collection of essays, the text looks at a wide range of musical influences. Readers can study the cultural impact of folk music, the work of David Bowie and Burial, and the contributions of artists like PJ Harvey, Bishi, and Tricky. This book is designed for those interested in how the cultural and political meanings of Englishness have shifted since the late 20th century. By looking at pop music from both the inside and the outside of national debates, this book provides a way to understand how identity circulates in society. It is an essential resource for students and enthusiasts of musicology and cultural studies who want to understand the resonance of English identity in the modern era.
