  • Intertextuality in Popular Music After 1965 (By Joseph R. Matson)
    Intertextuality in Popular Music after 1965 A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Joseph R. Matson IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Peter Mercer-Taylor, Advisor December 2016 © Joseph R. Matson 2016 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The present work is the result of several years’ labor, but I did not labor alone. Many people have generously offered me their support and guidance, and without them, this dissertation would not exist. My entry into higher education was not guaranteed. It depended on substantial financial support, first from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, which ultimately allowed me to complete a Bachelor of Arts in Music degree from Iowa State University. Then subsequent financial support came from the University of Iowa, where I earned a Master of Arts degree in Musicology, and from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), which provided funding for me to complete a German language immersion program. Finally, the University of Minnesota supported the pursuit of my doctoral studies in Musicology / Ethnomusicology. Any degree in higher education requires a significant investment of time and resources, and these institutions have invested in me for more than a decade. During my doctoral studies, I gained valuable professional experience through my faculty appointments at Illinois State University, Millikin University, and Illinois Wesleyan University. Each of these institutions took a chance on me in the early stages of my career, and I am grateful for the opportunities they afforded me and for the faith they placed in me. All six of the above-named universities provided access to materials that would otherwise have been inaccessible, primarily through the substantial collections of resources housed in their various libraries.
