內容簡介
"The path the slave took to 'citizenship' is what I want to look at. And I make my analogy through the slave citizen's music — through the music that is most closely associated with him: blues and a later, but parallel development, jazz... [If] the Negro represents, or is symbolic of, something in and about the nature of American culture, this certainly should be revealed by his characteristic music."
So says Amiri Baraka in the Introduction to Blues People, his classic work on the place of jazz and blues in American social, musical, economic, and cultural history. From the music of African slaves in the United States through the music scene of the 1960's, Baraka traces the influence of what he calls "negro music" on white America — not only in the context of music and pop culture but also in terms of the values and perspectives passed on through the music. In tracing the music, he brilliantly illuminates the influence of African Americans on American culture and history.
中文簡介
“路徑”公民的奴隸了就是我想看。我讓我的類比通過奴隸公民的音樂-通過音樂是最緊密聯繫在一起他:藍軍和後,但並行開發,爵士…[如果]黑人代表,或者是象徵性的某樣東西,在美國文化的本質,這當然應該表明其具有鮮明特色的音樂。”
所以說Amiri介紹Baraka藍軍的人,他的經典著作中對爵士樂和藍調的地方,在美國社會、音樂、經濟和文化歷史。從音樂的非洲奴隸在美國通過音樂圈的1960年代,Baraka痕跡影響他所謂的“黑人音樂“白人至上的美國社會——不僅體現在音樂和流行文化,還表現在對價值觀和觀點通過音樂。在跟隨音樂,他出色地闡明了影響非洲裔美國人對美國的文化和歷史。
