Cheap Print and Popular Song in the Nineteenth Century
«'No doubt a range of interdisciplinary scholars - such as those grounded in English, popular culture, music, American studies, media studies, and more - will be interested in this volume's focus on the nineteenth century, culture, production, and politics.' Scott Gac, Journal of Popular Music Studies»
This book is a cultural history of the nineteenth-century songster: pocket-sized anthologies of song texts, usually without musical notation. It examines the musical, social, commercial and aesthetic functions songsters served and the processes by which they were produced and disseminated, the repertory they included, and the singers, printers and entrepreneurs that both inspired their manufacture and facilitated their consumption.
