  • Bambuco, Tango and Bolero: Music, Identity, and Class Struggles in Medell´In, Colombia, 1930–1953
    BAMBUCO, TANGO AND BOLERO: MUSIC, IDENTITY, AND CLASS STRUGGLES IN MEDELL¶IN, COLOMBIA, 1930{1953 by Carolina Santamar¶³aDelgado B.S. in Music (harpsichord), Ponti¯cia Universidad Javeriana, 1997 M.A. in Ethnomusicology, University of Pittsburgh, 2002 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Department of Music in partial ful¯llment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of Pittsburgh 2006 BAMBUCO, TANGO AND BOLERO: MUSIC, IDENTITY, AND CLASS STRUGGLES IN MEDELL¶IN, COLOMBIA, 1930{1953 Carolina Santamar¶³aDelgado, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2006 This dissertation explores the articulation of music, identity, and class struggles in the pro- duction, reception, and consumption of sound recordings of popular music in Colombia, 1930- 1953. I analyze practices of cultural consumption involving records in Medell¶³n,Colombia's second largest city and most important industrial center at the time. The study sheds light on some of the complex connections between two simultaneous historical processes during the mid-twentieth century, mass consumption and socio-political strife. Between 1930 and 1953, Colombian society experienced the rise of mass media and mass consumption as well as the outbreak of La Violencia, a turbulent period of social and political strife. Through an analysis of written material, especially the popular press, this work illustrates the use of aesthetic judgments to establish social di®erences in terms of ethnicity, social class, and gender. Another important aspect of the dissertation focuses on the adoption of music gen- res by di®erent groups, not only to demarcate di®erences at the local level, but as a means to inscribe these groups within larger imagined communities.

  • Surrealism, Occultism and Politics
    Surrealism, Occultism and Politics This volume examines the relationship between occultism and Surrealism, specif- ically exploring the reception and appropriation of occult thought, motifs, tropes and techniques by surrealist artists and writers in Europe and the Americas from the 1920s through the 1960s. Its central focus is the specific use of occultism as a site of political and social resistance, ideological contestation, subversion and revolution. Additional focus is placed on the ways occultism was implicated in surrealist dis- courses on identity, gender, sexuality, utopianism and radicalism. Dr. Tessel M. Bauduin is a Postdoctoral Research Associate and Lecturer at the Uni- versity of Amsterdam. Dr. Victoria Ferentinou is an Assistant Professor at the University of Ioannina.

In the "Persons Unknown" conspiracy case — to which we refer on another page — a blanket of silence has surrounded the charges which are being swapped around all the time. Many of our friends have been bewildered by the events and asked for an explanation which nobody outsi the police (or at least, a sinister section of it) has been able to give. We are able now to expose the bizarre trutr, behind the alleged conspiracy to cause explosions that never existed outside the minds of the "Anti" Terrorist Sqoati or which (as Insp.

There have been no terrorist-type crimes in England, or anything which could conceivably have been described as such, within the lasi five years other than Iris Mills (Black Box Photos) specifically I.R.A. or Arab nationalist These attacks include the bomb at the courts. To save tace, certain charges arc attacks, the perpetrators of which have Conservative Party headquarters (proved quietly being dropped and other more been clearly defined, or the attacks made long since to be an obvious dummy and a plausible ones substituted, like robberies by fascist organisations upon leftist harmless hoax and probably for publicity) which apparently no-one saw happening. premises and persons, which the Anti- the burning down of the Socialist Workers On this we can't comment.
