Taylor & Francis New Media Old Media
Book SynopsisNew Media, Old Media is a comprehensive anthology of original and classic essays that explore the tensions of old and new in digital culture. Leading international media scholars and cultural theorists interrogate new media like the Internet, digital video, and MP3s against the backdrop of earlier media such as television, film, photography, and print. The essays provide new benchmarks for evaluating all those claims; political, social, ethical, made about the digital age. Committed to historical research and to theoretical innovation, they suggest that in the light of digital programmability, seemingly forgotten moments in the history of the media we glibly call old can be rediscovered and transformed. The many topics explored in provocative volume include websites, webcams, the rise and fall of dotcom mania, Internet journalism, the open source movement, and computer viruses. New Media, Old Media is a foundational text for general readerTable of ContentsIntroduction: Did Somebody Say New Media? Wendy Hui Kyong ChunPart I: The Archaeology of New Media1.

Taylor & Francis Baakisimba Gender in the Music and Dance of the
Book SynopsisOriginally a royal court dance, baakisimba asserted the authority of the king as the head of Baganda society. After the abolition of kingship in 1967, baakisimba dance began to be performed in other contexts, with women sometimes playing the accompanying drums-traditionally a man's role-and with men occasionally performing the dance.Sylivia Nannyonga-Tamusuza argues that the music and dance of the Baganda people are not simply reflective of culture; baakisimba participates in the construction of social relations, and helps determine how these relations shape the performing arts. Integrating a study of foregrounds the conceptualization of gender as a time-specific cultural phenomenon. Illuminating the complex relationship between baakisimba and Baganda culture, this path breaking volume bridges the gaps in previous scholarship that integrates music and dance in ethnomusicological scholarship.Table of ContentsContentsPrefaceAcknowledgmentsIntroductionC hapter One: Gender Construction in BugandaChapter Two: Baakisimba Performance ContextsChapter Three: Engoma Za Baakisimba: The Gendered DrumsChapter Four: Baakisimba: The Women's DanceSummary and ConclusionAppendicesNotesGlossaryBibliogr aphyIndex
