Afterword

CAVE Terence, ‘"Afterword", in Philip Bullock and Laura Tunbridge (Eds), Song Beyond the Nation: Translation, Transnationalism, Performance, Proceedings of the British Academy, vol. 236, Oxford University Press, 2021.

Présentation

This volume brings together musicologists, literary scholars, linguists, and cultural historians to examine the ways in which song creation, practice, and interpretation has been defined by, and in turn defines, conceptions of nationalism and the transnational. It focuses on four key poets - the Persian Hafiz, German Heine, American Whitman, and French Verlaine - and examines how their poems have been 'translated' into song, and how music can challenge the seemingly organic relationship between language and nation.
