Inhaltsangabe

This collection of essays, edited by leading scholars in the field, focuses on how expressive genres such as music, dance and poetry are of enduring significance to social organization. The contributors have all carried out first-hand fieldwork, often over a period of many years, and they bring their experience to bear on both the aesthetic and the analytical aspects of their materials.
