Description

Explore the vital role of sixteenth-century ballads in a time when news and information were hard to find. Singing the News offers a readable and accessible account of how music functioned as a primary source of information during the Tudor era. In a period where discussing politics could be considered treason, ballads served as a key method for spreading messages to the masses. Jenni Hyde provides a fresh analytical framework for understanding these historical songs. Unlike previous studies, this work looks at the melody just as much as the written words. This approach shows how music helped shape the way people understood texts and processed news. This book is an essential resource for those interested in early modern culture, music history, and the social impact of oral traditions in England.
