Description

Explore the specific history of minstrelsy through the lens of British culture with this scholarly work from Routledge. While blackface minstrelsy is often linked to American popular culture, this book focuses on the unique trajectory of the practice within Britain. It examines the constant exchange of performers and troupes across the Atlantic and addresses the gap in British scholarship compared to studies in the United States. This text provides a historical study and cultural analysis of minstrelsy as a significant form of song, music, and theatrical entertainment. By looking at its impact on popular music and dance, readers gain a better understanding of how these performances shaped British entertainment history. This volume is part of the Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series, making it a valuable resource for those studying the evolution of music and performance styles.
