Sandie Holguín focuses on the history of the form and how reactions to the performances transformed from disgust to reverance over the course of two centuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Holguín’s well-written, witty, and scholarly book on flamenco and the shaping of modern Spanish national identity helps us understand the enigmatic tension between Spaniards’ often ambivalent attitudes toward flamenco and the art form’s enormous success beyond Iberia.” —Enrique Sanabria, University of New Mexico\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“As bracing as the clicking of castanets, this book plunges the reader into the history of flamenco and charts how this art form became quintessentially Spanish. Holguín demonstrates how music and dance take on nationalist overtones—and does so with such verve.” —Clinton Young, author of \u003ci\u003eMusic Theater and Popular Nationalism in Spain, 1880–1930\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"MP-WIS Uni of Wisconsin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52151087858007,"sku":"9780299321802","price":35.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780299321802.jpg?v=1762960091","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/flamenco-nation-the-construction-of-spanish-national-identity-9780299321802","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
