SEM Newsletter, Volume Fifty Volume 50, Number 1 Winter 2016 SEM Newsletter, Volume Fifty Reflections on theSEM Newsletter Gordon Thompson, Skidmore College This issue opens volume 50 of the SEM Newsletter and presents an opportunity to reflect on how this publication has served the SEM. To review that history, past editors Charlotte Frisbie, Jeff Titon, Barbara L. Hampton, Ruth Stone, Laurel Sercombe, Deborah Wong, René Lysloff, Tong Soon Lee, Louise Spear, Nancy Cassell McEntire, and Henry Spiller (as well as Bruno Nettl) have contributed their memories. Unsurprisingly, the history of the SEM Newsletter reveals much about the technological changes of this era, as well as our core cultural values. n December 1953, Alan Merriam mailed the ten-paged Chippewa,” David McAllester’s recordings of “Apache pu- I“ETHNO-MUSICOLOGY Newsletter No. 1” to three berty dance music” and of the “Navaho Blessing Chant,” hundred individuals whom he hoped would “return ad- Alan Merriam’s 38 hours of music from the “Belgian ditional names of scholars, administrators of institutions Congo and Ruanda Urundi,” and Richard Waterman’s interested in the field, and young people just entering it on materials made on a “Magnecorder” with the Yirkalla of the professional level.” This first issue of the Newsletter Australia.

The study of useful plants is an ancient discipline, but the term ethnobotany to indicate a sepa- rate and distinct branch of the natural sciences did not come into use until 1895. It is, by defini- tion, interdisciplinary, drawing from botany, medicine, anthropology, religion, religion, history, pharmacology, phytochemistry and conservation and the books we offer reflect this wide range of disciplines. Although simply listed alphabetically by author, there are many books related to the use of plants in Africa, Hawaii and the Pacific, Asia and the Americas, and others describing the use of psychoactive plants in ancient religions and modern times.

Retrieved [date] from http://www.ijea.org/v14si1/. IJEA Vol. 14 Special Issue 1.3 - http://www.ijea.org/v14si1/ 2 Introduction Ethnomusicology, the field in which I've spent most of my life, is an unpronounceable interdisciplinary field whose denizens have trouble agreeing on its definition. I'll just call it the study of the world’s musical cultures from a comparative perspective, and the study of all music from the perspective of anthropology. Now, I have frequently found myself surrounded by colleagues in other fields who wanted me to explain what I'm all about, and so I have tried frequently, and really without much success, to find the right way to do this. Again, not long go, at a dinner, a distinguished physicist and music lover, trying, I think, to wrap his mind around what I was doing, asked me, "What are the great discoveries of your field?" I don't think he was being frivolous, but he saw his field as punctuated by Newton, Einstein, Bardeen, and he wondered whether we had a similar set of paradigms, or perhaps of sacred figures.

  • Intellectuals, Blackness, and Inter-Americanism in Mexico After 1910
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: IN BLACK AND BROWN: INTELLECTUALS, BLACKNESS, AND INTER-AMERICANISM IN MEXICO AFTER 1910 Theodore Cohen, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Professor Mary Kay Vaughan Department of History “In Black and Brown” examines how blackness and Africanness became constituent elements of Mexican culture after the Revolution of 1910. In refuting the common claim that black cultures and identities were erased or ignored in the post-revolutionary era, it argues that anthropologists, historians, (ethno)musicologists, and local intellectuals integrated black and, after 1940, African-descended peoples and cultures into a democratic concept of national identity. Although multiple historical actors contributed to this nationalist project, three intellectuals—composer and ethnomusicologist Gerónimo Baqueiro Foster (1898-1967), anthropologist Gonzalo Aguirre Beltrán (1908-1996), and city of Veracruz poet Francisco Rivera (1908-1994)—most coherently identified Africanness in Mexican history and culture. As these state and local intellectuals read ethnographic texts about African cultural retentions throughout the Western Hemisphere, they situated these cultural practices in specific Mexican communities and regional spaces. By tracing the inter-American networks that shaped these identities, “In Black and Brown” asserts that the classification of blackness and Africanness as Mexican was in conversation with the refashioning of blackness, Africanness, and indigeneity across the Americas and was part of the

Cover illustration: DANCE OF THE DOG SOLDIER SOCIETIES, by Dick West. Courtesy Philbrook Art Center. Dedicated to the memory of Willard W. Beatty, Director of Indian Education for the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Department of the Interior, from 1937 to 1951. • • FOREWORD TO THE 1954 EDITION • • For a number of years the Bureau of Indian Affairs has sponsored the recording of typical Indian music throughout the United States. During this time approximately a thousand Indian songs have been recorded by Mr. Willard Rhodes, professor of music at Columbia Univer­ sity. The study originated in an effort to deter­ mine the extent to which new musical themes were continuing to develop. Studies have shown that in areas of Indian concentration, especially in the Southwest, the old ceremonial songs are still used in the traditional fashion. In the Indian areas where assimilation has been greater, Indian­ type music is still exceedingly popular. There is considerable creative activity in the development of new secular songs which are used for social gatherings. These songs pass from reservation to reservation with slight change. While the preservation of Indian music through recordings contributes only a small part to the total understanding of American Indians, it is nevertheless an important key to this understand­ ing.
