  • A Dialogical Approach to the Work of Jackson Browne A
    (l ' CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE THE CONTEMPORARY RHAPSODE: A DIALOGICAL APPROACH TO THE WORK OF JACKSON BROWNE A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Speech Communication by Jeff Parker Knight August 1987 The Thesis of Jeff Parker Knight is approved: William G. Freeman Christie A. Logan California State University, Northridge ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The members of my committee have been enthusiastic, patient, and insightful from the earliest inceptions of this thesis.· In the courses I have taken from these three individuals, and in our conversations about and not­ about scholarly matters, Bill Freeman, Christie Logan, and particularly my committee's chair, Don Salper, have taught me more and in more ways than I may know for some time, and I am very grateful. My good friend, Diggs Wimberley, has, in a conversa­ tion that has now lasted seven years, shared with me his perceptive ideas about art: its quality, its creation, and its role in our world. His insights have been valu­ able and appreciated. J.C. Nadel, as a fellow Jackson Browne enthusiast, has often, through her own excitement about this thesis, refueled my brain when it was running on empty, and she has my thanks! I would like to thank my mother, Alice Knight, for, among other things, helping me learn to appreciate both poetry and music. It is my hope that that appreciation has borne fruit herein. My brother, Guy Knight, bought Jackson Browne's album, The Pretender, in 1976, and made me listen to it. For this and countless other blessings, I thank him.

Hyniea (Niea) Gardner A Thesis in the Field of Anthropology and Archaeology for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University May 2019 © May 2019 Hyniea (Niea) Gardner Abstract In 2016 the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA) reported that the Korean music industry saw an overseas revenue of ₩5.3 trillion ($4.7 billion) in concert tickets, streaming music, compact discs (CDs), and related services and merchandise such as fan meetings and purchases of music artist apparel and accessories (Kim 2017 and Erudite Risk Business Intelligence 2017). Korean popular music (K-Pop) is a billion-dollar industry. Known for its energetic beats, synchronized choreography, and a sound that can be an amalgamation of electronica, blues, hip-hop, rock, and R&B all mixed together to create something that fans argue is “uniquely K-Pop.” However, further examination reveals that producers and songwriters – both Korean and the American and European specialists contracted by agencies – tend to base the foundation of the K-Pop sound in hip-hop and R&B, which has strong ties to African-American musical traditions.

WHEN THE COUNTERCULTURE PICKED UP A SOUTHERN TWANG: A CULTURAL ANALYSIS OF LATE SIXTIES AND EARLY SEVENTIES COUNTRY ROCK MOVEMENT A Thesis Presented for the Master of Arts Degree The University of Mississippi Xiang Xu April 2014 Copyright © 2014 by Xiang Xu All rights reserve ABSTRACT My thesis is a cultural analysis of California-based country-rock movement in the late sixties and early seventies. Country rock is a hybrid music genre emerged during this period. Musicians active in the country-rock movement were mostly counterculture hippies, and they adopted country music to serve their own ends. There is no unified ideological thinking in this movement. Some musicians were political while others were not. Music critics generally agree that country rock was a cultural reaction to the cynicism and rootlessness of youth culture in the late sixties and early seventies.
