  • The Rewritten War Alternate Histories of the American Civil War
    Title The Rewritten War Alternate Histories of the American Civil War By Renee de Groot Supervised by Dr. George Blaustein Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the History: American Studies Program Faculty of Humanities University of Amsterdam 22 August 2016 Declaration I declare that I have read the UvA regulations regarding fraud and plagiarism, and that the following thesis is my original work. Renee de Groot August 22, 2016 Abstract The American Civil War (1861-1865) has provided food for counterfactual speculation for historians, journalists, critics, and writers of all stripes for over a century. What if the Confederacy had won? What if the South had abolished slavery? What if Lincoln had lived? What if…? This thesis offers an anatomy of Civil War alternate history as a distinct though eclectic cultural form. It takes apart the most interesting manifestations and reassembles them to show four intriguing functions of this form: as a platform for challenges to narratives of Civil War memory, for counterintuitive socio-economic criticism, for intricate reflections on history writing and on historical consciousness. It shows the many paradoxes that rule Civil War alternate history: its insularity and global outlook, its essential un-creativity, its ability to attract strange bedfellows and to prod the boundaries between fact and fiction. Most importantly, this thesis demonstrates the marriage of sophistication and banality that characterizes this form that is ultimately the

  • Robert Johnson's “Terraplane Blues,”
    1 The Significance of Cars in the Delta: Robert Johnson’s “Terraplane Blues,” (Vocalion, 03416, 1937) Abstract: Robert Johnson's "Terraplane Blues" was a modest hit for the newly recorded bluesman. Notable musically for its elaborate intertwining rhythms and disjointed sections, interpretations of the song have revolved around its lyrical double entendres that equate a woman to a car to discuss her infidelity and the narrator's resultant inability to arouse or satisfy his partner sexually. Although the car in the title has been identified as a Hudson model, scant attention has been paid to the socio-cultural significance of cars in the Delta in the late 1930s. Cars represent a charged locus of convergence of meanings in the Mississippi Delta: a commodity that condenses not only racialized, socio-economic relations, but also the forces of modernization. Ambiguously identified as both means of mobility and significant investments, cars symbolize both escape and entrapment by the economic system. Recontextualizing the central symbol in "Terraplane Blues" with the aid of Federal Writers Project interviews and sociological studies of the Delta complicates our understanding of the meaning of the song. The affective shifts associated with sexual betrayal and frustration, as well as the musical leaps and gaps, map onto the contested meanings of automobiles among an impoverished and largely immobilized African American population during the Depression. Keywords: Johnson, Robert, 1911-1938 Blues musicians -- Mississippi Blues (Music) -- Mississippi Guitar music (Blues) Automobiles -- Social aspects -- United States -- History -- 20th century 2 The Significance of Cars in the Delta: Robert Johnson’s “Terraplane Blues,” (Vocalion, 03416, 1937) “I had a 4,000 dollar car and 3,900 dollars in my pocket.

  • Understanding Popular Music, Second Edition
    Understanding Popular Music Understanding Popular Music is an accessible and comprehensive introduction to the history and meaning of popular music. It begins with a critical assessment of the different ways in which popular music has been studied and examines the difficulties and debates which surround the analysis of popular culture and popular music. Drawing on the recent work of music scholars and the popular music press, Roy Shuker explores key subjects which shape our experience of music, including music production, the music industry, music policy, fans, audiences and subcultures, the musician as ‘star’, music journalism, and the reception and consumption of popular music. This fully revised and updated second edition includes: • case studies and lyrics of artists such as Shania Twain, S Club 7, The Spice Girls and Fat Boy Slim • the impact of technologies including on-line delivery and the debates over MP3 and Napster • the rise of DJ culture and the changing idea of the ‘musician’ • a critique of gender and sexual politics and the discrimination which exists in the music industry • moral panics over popular music, including the controversies surrounding artists such as Marilyn Manson and Eminem • a comprehensive discography, guide to further reading and directory of websites. Roy Shuker is Associate Professor in Media Studies at Massey University, New Zealand. He is the author of Key Concepts in Popular Music (Routledge 1998).
