Bøker av Keith Negus

A long-awaited second edition of this classic cultural studies textbook. A seminal text brought right up to date for a new generation of students and teachers.

Negus and Pickering provide a clear and logical way of understanding what we describe as creative, and how this term has become central to attaching cultural value.

Music Genres and Corporate Cultures explores the relationship between economics and culture, and between corporate organisation and cultural forms.

In tracing the various phases of a career that has lasted almost half a century, Negus stresses the centrality of performance to Dylan's life as a musician and songwriter, as well as detailing the way he has treated his songs as continually open to change and rearrangement in concert. Through listening to Dylan's words as sounds, rhythms and tunes in the air rather than reading them as prose on a page, we can gain an insight into one of the most enigmatic, enthralling, yet unpredictable, of contemporary popular musicians.
