Description
The first edition of James Lull's edited collection of essays Popular Music and Communication was a pioneering effort that helped introduce and legitimize the serious study of popular music and its relation to social and cultural interaction. Now the editor has assembled an expanded second edition. Core essays from the first edition by scholars such as Simon Frith and Larry Grossberg have been thoroughly revised and updated. Fascinating new articles appear on a range of subjects including: popular music and social dance; the visual pleasure of music video; disruption caused by popular music in the political upheavals of Eastern Europe; and the cultural roles of popular music among Vietnamese immigrants in the United States.
