‎Folk Songs and Material Culture in Medieval Central Europe. Old Stones and New Music‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xiv + 282 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:23 b/w, Languages: English, Latin, German. ISBN 9782503541327.‎


‎Summary This book takes a unique approach to the study of folk music in Central Europe. Through an analysis of this cultural tradition, and of how words and ideas that were first introduced in Latin Antiquity became increasingly cultivated, refined, and established in the centuries that followed, the volume also questions present-day studies of sound and its organization into the field of so-called 'folk music'. In so doing, it breaks down boundaries that separate historical studies from ethnomusicology, and sheds light on what music continues to mean in daily life. While the focus is primarily on Central European folk music, and in particular on material found in the Hungarian archives, the approach taken here also points to a fruitful comparative methodology that could be employed on a larger scale, enabling scholars to consider broader chronological and geographical contexts.
