  • Gospel Music in the United States
    PEOPLE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF ALGERIA MINISTRY Of HIGHER EDUCATION AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH FACULTY OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH MASTER IN Literature and interdisciplinary approaches Gospel Music in the United States Submitted by: Belalia Amel Members of the board: Chairperson: Mrs Aissat djamila Supervisor: Mrs Benneghrouzi Fatima Zohra Examiner: Mrs Mokkadem Academic Year : 2019 / 2020 Dedications I dedicate this work to My parents and my family To all the gospel soldiers in the long struggle for human freedom I Acknowledgements First of all, I thank Allah for his help and guidance. Enormous thanks to my supervisor Benneghrouzi Fatima Zohra. An extra thanks to Mr. Teguia for his advises. In addition, I owe additional thank to my friends for their support and advises. II Abstract When Africans were forced to leave their homes in Africa and brought to North America to live and die in servitude, they brought with them their rich culture. Culture is a vital human resource for resisting oppression. This included music. The story of black music is also the tale of the enduring social struggles of American history. For slaves, songs were very important, they were used to communicate. Among the most powerful resources that sustained African Americans through difficulty was strong religious faith. The songs sung in slave times gave birth to religious songs known as Spiritual Songs. The secular and sacred songs of everyday black folk are bound up in loss, despair, hope, and dreams. Since the majority of slaves could not read, they used a variety of means to protest, for example, coded songs which encouraged escape and sabotage.

BRUMLEY Albert E. Brumley (1905-1977) was the most influential American gospel song composer of the twentieth century, penning such “classics” within the genre as “Jesus, Hold My Hand,” “I’ll Meet You in the Morning,” “If We Never Meet Again,” “Turn Your Radio On,” and “Rank Strangers to Me.” His “I’ll Fly Away” has become the most recorded gospel song in American history with over one thousand recordings to date, and several of his works transcend cultural boundaries of style, genre, race, denomination, and doctrine.

  • HARD, HARD RELIGION: FAITH and CLASS in the NEW SOUTH By
    HARD, HARD RELIGION: FAITH AND CLASS IN THE NEW SOUTH by JOHN HERBERT HAYES (Under the Direction of KATHLEEN CLARK) ABSTRACT “Hard, Hard Religion: Faith and Class in the New South” argues that a fervent people’s religious culture permeated the rural New South, and was a central element in the persona and music of an iconic figure from that world, Johnny Cash. A distinct religious sensibility—a regional “popular religion,” or what one white farm laborer called “hard, hard religion”—constituted a central medium through which the rural poor, white and black, articulated and engaged with the hard everyday forces in their lives in the New South: confinement, marginality, injustice, and ridicule. This sensibility was not a static “old time religion,” an “otherworldly” compensation, or a psychological coping mechanism. Indeed, through the mediated forms of “folk” music and early “hillbilly” and “race” records, this popular religion has recurrently attracted outsiders for its complex engagement with modernity and its discontents, even though the dominant categories of historical analysis, those that conceptualize southern power relations and religion solely through the lens of race, have obscured it. I focus in on the persona and music of Johnny Cash, demonstrating that a principal aspect of his durable popular appeal was his creative engagement with the “hard, hard religion” he absorbed in his youth, in a rural community in Arkansas in the 1930s and ‘40s. In wrestling with the meaning of his inherited faith, Cash sang basic themes from the older culture—an abiding sense of evil and of perpetual struggle against darkness, a via negativa as the path to God, a feeling of mystery and the stark limit in life, and a democratic spirit of favoritism for the lowly—into American popular culture from the 1960s until his death in 2003.

Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Music in the oral culture of Black Americans is both functional and meaningful in the way it communicates culture. Music is functional as a transmitter of messages and ideas. Music is meaningful as a ritual and serves as a form of community maintenance. Sacred music in particular was crucial in maintaining culture because it was often through religion that enslaved Africans were able to practice modified African rituals under the guise of Christianity. Black American sacred music has historically been a medium that has functioned as an outlet for the frustration against the dominant ideology of racial oppression in the United States.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the influence of music on the development of the Church of God (Cleveland, Tennessee). The dissertation is historically driven, but relies upon an interdisciplinary approach to draw on the insights of ecclesiology, theology, liturgiology, church development, and music. This thesis utilizes a chronological and systematic approach to the relationship between music and the Church of God in the United States during the first 125 years of the denomination’s history, from 1886 – 2011. The study focuses upon eight major themes: historical roots, education, publishing, evangelism, transition, nurturing, liturgiology, and worship,
