Vers une redéfinition de la protest song ? Réflexions sur la chanson contestataire aux États-Unis : le cas de Bruce Springsteen et la reflective song. / Towards a Redefinition of the Protest Song? Reflections on the Protest Song in the USA : the Case of Bruce Springsteen and the Reflective Song.Chouana, Khaled 12 July 2018 (has links)
Ce travail constitue une réflexion sur la chanson contestataire contemporaine aux États-Unis à travers les chansons et l’engagement politique et social de Bruce Springsteen. Nous défendons la thèse que Springsteen renouvelle le genre de la protest song en s’adaptant à l’époque contemporaine. Pour ce faire, le chanteur adopte quatre stratégies artistiques. Elles consistent à chanter sur les gens ordinaires et leur quotidien, aborder le désenchantement et le désespoir des plus exclus, composer des chansons qui remplissent une fonction cathartique en ayant recours à l’imitation et enfin à militer dans la sphère politique et sociale en soutenant des candidats lors des élections présidentielles américaines tout en offrant des dons aux organisations caritatives qui aident les plus démunis. La thèse démontre que Springsteen arrive à se hisser au sommet du classement des meilleures ventes aux États-Unis et à travers le monde grâce à ces stratégies. Elles lui ont permis de mobiliser un public et d’avoir des millions de fans. Nous proposons d’appeler les chansons engagées de Springsteen des chansons méditatives (reflective songs). La chanson méditative de Springsteen est, sans doute, l’outil culturel de contestation le plus adapté à l’époque contemporaine où il est difficile pour un artiste engagé de protester efficacement du fait de la marchandisation de l’acte même de sa contestation. Il se peut que la reflective song de Bruce Springsteen ne change pas le monde, mais elle peut en revanche permettre aux gens de croire en un monde meilleur et donc de les dissuader de se révolter. / This work is a study of contemporary protest song in the USA through the songs and social and political activism of Bruce Springsteen. It contends that Springsteen has been able to reexamine American protest songs and frame a new genre under the umbrella of rock music by adapting his music to the social and political context of contemporary America. The thesis that I defend shows that the reason behind the commercial success of Springsteen can be explained by the fact that he has adopted several artistic strategies which have brought him an audience composed of dedicated fans who admire him. I argue that Springsteen adopts four main strategies: firstly, singing about ordinary people and reporting their daily hardships; secondly, composing somber songs that deal with the despair of blue collars and marginalized Americans; thirdly, adopting mimesis (imitation) which has a cathartic effect on Springsteen’s audience; and finally, getting involved in social and political activism. The thesis contends that Springsteen is among the top selling rock singers in the USA and several other countries thanks to these four strategies. Springsteen has reinvented protest song as a genre and has become a reference in a world where everything is co-opted including the very act of rebellion. I, therefore, suggest a new term, reflective songs, to describe the songs of Bruce Springsteen when they reflect on the condition of the socially excluded instead of protesting pointlessly. Springsteen’s reflective song is undoubtedly the most relevant artistic medium to shed light on the most deprived people of contemporary America. Perhaps, the reflective song of Bruce Springsteen will not change the world, but at least it gives people a reason to hope for a better future.

Origine, mémoire et épiphanie du réel dans l'oeuvre narrative de François Bon / Origin, memory and epiphany of reality in the narrative work of François BonPortugais, Daniel 21 December 2018 (has links)
Cette thèse est consacrée à l’œuvre narrative de François Bon. Elle concerne donc les romans, récits, autobiographies et biographies qui ont été publiés par l’écrivain de 1982 à 2016. De ce fait, la question centrale d’une nouvelle approche de la lecture et de l’écriture liée au développement du numérique ne sera abordée que lorsqu’elle permettra d’éclairer le mode de fonctionnement des livres de l’auteur de Sortie d’usine. Ce travail s’intéresse ainsi à trois dimensions essentielles du contemporain que l’œuvre questionne de manière incessante et récurrente : l’origine, la mémoire et la problématique d’un réel qui est à la fois imposé comme évidence dans ses manifestations les plus flagrantes et escamoté comme rejeté lorsqu’il remet en question l’ordre et le déroulement du monde dans lequel nous nous trouvons immergé. Elle aborde ainsi un certain nombre de thèmes et réflexions sous-tendus par une littérature au présent : l’émergence du nouveau au sein d’un monde ancien, des signes contradictoires même que ce phénomène induit, l’importance fondamentale que l’époque pourrait revêtir du point de vue de l’histoire. Elle explore, en outre, le lien entre la machine économico-industrielle et un nouvel ordre du monde néo-libéral qui évacue, escamote et recycle à la fois passé et présent en même temps qu’il écrit une histoire dont nous pouvons être assurée qu’elle ne correspond en aucune manière à l’expression d’une vérité. Dans ce travail de recherche est exploré le plus souvent ce qui relève de formes nouvelles, dans la relation même que l’auteur entretient avec des domaines qui ne constituaient pas jusqu’à une époque récente des préoccupations éminemment littéraires : l’univers pop-rock, une phénoménologie de la mécanique et de l’automobile, la présence d’un monde postindustriel en lequel l’usine et l’ouvrier apparaissent comme autant d’emblèmes et symboles. / This thesis is devoted to the narrative work of François Bon. Therefore it concerns the novels, stories, autobiographies and biographies which were published by the writer from 1982 to 2016. So, the central question of a new way of reading and writing linked to the development of digital technology will only be addressed when it will shed light on the way books by the author of Sortie d’usine work. This thesis is thus focused on three essential dimensions of the contemporary that François Bon’s work constantly and recurrently questions: the origin, the memory and the problematic of a reality that is both imposed as evidence in its most obvious manifestations and retracted as rejected when it calls into question the order and the unfolding of the world in which we find ourselves immersed. It thus addresses a certain number of themes and reflections underlying a literature in the present: the emergence of the new within an ancient world, even contradictory signs that this phenomenon induces, the fundamental importance that the era could have from the point of view of history. It also explores the link between the economic-industrial machine and a new neo-liberal world order that evacuates, escapes and recycles both past and present while at the same time writing a story that we can be sure it does not in any way correspond to the expression of a truth. In this research work, new patterns are most often explored in the very relationship that the author maintains with fields that until recently did not constitute eminently literary concerns: the pop-rock universe, a phenomenology of mechanics and the automobile, the presence of a post-industrial world in which the factories and the workers appear as so many emblems and symbols.

Vzorce užívání návykových látek u aktivních hudebníků v hudebních skupinách na Benešovsku / Patterns of use addictive substances at active musicians in music groups in the BenešovskoOlišarová, Pavlína January 2021 (has links)
Introduction: Addictive substances among musicians is a common occurrence. However, this phenomenon is mostly described only by the musicians themselves in their autobiographies. There is little professional work to address this phenomenon. There are many factors that affect musicians and lead them to use addictive substances. Even though this phenomenon is so widespread, it is taken for granted and few pay attention to it. Aim: Aim of thesis is to identify and describe patterns of substance use in active musicians in music groups that are based in the Benešov region, but play outside this area too. Methodology Data were collected in the form of a semi-structured interview. A list of music groups was created using the bandzone website. These groups were then found on Facebook to find out their activity. They were also subsequently approached here. 9 researched musicians took part in the research. Responses from the interviews were recorded directly by hand. Overwrite was performed while data was being written. Subsequently, the data were analyzed by elements of grounded theory. Using open coding, the codes were assigned to important topics in the text. These topics were grouped using axial coding. Using these categories, patterns of substance use among active musicians in music groups based in the...

Every Town Is All the Same When You've Left Your Heart in the Portland Rain: Representations of Portland Place and Local Identity in Portland Popular LyricsKearney, Meghan Andrea 13 December 2013 (has links)
This study looks at how place and local identity of Portland are described within music lyrics from Portland, Oregon popular indie-rock artists. Employing a constant comparative analysis on a set of 1,201 songs from 21 different popular Portland indie-rock artists, the themes of landscapes and climate were found to represent place, and themes of lifestyles and attitudes represented local identity. Reviewing the uncovered themes showed a strong connection between representations of place and local identity within lyrics and common stereotypes or understandings of the city of Portland and its indie-rock music scene. The results of this study illustrate how place and local identity are communicated through popular but locally-tied music lyrics and how these lyrics may describe cities.

I Get a Thrill from Punishment: Lou Reed's Adaptations and the Pain They CauseSmith, Jonathan B. 17 March 2014 (has links) (PDF)
This paper explores two adaptations by rock musician Lou Reed of the Velvet Underground and Metal Machine Music fame. Reed has always been a complicated and controversial figure, but two of his albums—The Raven (2003), a collaborative theater piece; and Lulu (2011), a collaboration with heavy metal band Metallica—have inspired confusion and vitriol among both fans and critics. However, both adaptations, rich in intertextual references, at once show Reed to be what music historian Simon Reynolds calls a portal figure—offering a map of references to other texts for fans, indicating his own indebtedness to prior art—and to also be an uncompromisingly unique and original artist. This thesis analyzes both The Raven and Lulu and their adaptive connections to their source texts (the collected works of Edgar Allan Poe and the Lulu plays by German modernist Frank Wedekind) through the lens of adaptation theory. Although both albums, especially Lulu, were vilified by fans and critics alike, an exploration of both texts and their sources reveals a more complicated reading of the albums, as well as shedding light on adaptation theory. Reed's adaptations, in particular, offer compelling new insights into notions of fidelity—between an adaptation and its source, as well as between Reed and his career—and also promote alternative forms of listening pleasure, which challenge cultural and music industry boundaries regarding contemporary music. Lou Reed and his adaptive practice occupy a crucial position in the adaptive process, in both rock and heavy metal music.

Музыкальный фольклор в контексте массовой культуры России ХХI века : магистерская диссертация / Musical folklore in the context of Russian mass culture in the 21st centuryШафикова, Д. Р., Shafikova, D. R. January 2022 (has links)
Диссертация посвящена сложной, актуальной и мало разработанной пока проблеме взаимодействия народной и массовой культур в области музыкального творчества. Музыкальный фольклор исследуется в контексте тенденций современной массовой культуры, выявляются принципы его реализации в новых социокультурных условиях электронной эпохи глобализации и цифровизации. Дан краткий историко-культурный срез предпосылок развития такого музыкального направления ХХ века, как неофольклоризм. Выявлены особенности взаимодействия фольклора в композиторском творчестве «новой фольклорной волны» 1960-1970-х годов, повлиявших на современные процессы бытования музыкального фольклора в медиакультуре. Основные идеи работы доказываются на примере анализа таких явлений, как этноджаз, фолктроника и др., проявившихся в деятельности разных фольклорных групп ХХI века. В работе представлен самостоятельный проект, ориентированный на развитие современных фольклорных традиций и проявление творческих навыков в композиции и исполнительстве, а также сайт, в котором фигурируют исследуемые в диссертации коллективы (видеозапись). / The dissertation is devoted to a complex, topical and underdeveloped problem of the interaction of folk and mass cultures in the field of musical creativity. Musical folklore is studied in the context of the trends of modern mass culture, the principles of its implementation in the new socio-cultural conditions of the electronic era of globalization and digitalization are revealed. A brief historical and cultural section of the prerequisites for the development of such a musical direction of the twentieth century as neo-folklorism is given. The features of the interaction of folklore in the composer's work of the "new folklore wave" of the 1960-1970s, which influenced the modern processes of the existence of musical folklore in media culture, are revealed. The main ideas of the work are proved on the example of the analysis of such phenomena as ethnojazz, folktronics, etc., manifested in the activities of various folklore groups of the 21st century. The paper presents an independent project focused on the development of modern folklore traditions and the manifestation of creative skills in composition and performance, as well as a website that features the groups studied in the dissertation (video recording).

Stage sound in rock music performed at small venues : an audio engineering challengeWänstrand, Ylva January 2024 (has links)
Loud stage sound is a known challenge for live sound engineers, and the goal of this study was to investigate stage sound's role in live rock music performed in small venues. Stage sound is known to be prominent in small rooms as the total sound energy produced tends to contain a large proportion of stage sound. It commonly addressed that if the PA is overpowered by direct sound from instruments on stage, the mixing engineer may lose control over musical balance and overall sound level. To understand how engineers handle this, 6 professional engineers were interviewed by using semi-structured interviews. Additionally, 14 shorter interviews were conducted with musicians to gain further insight in what attributes of stage sound are desirable for performers and how they are affected by engineers' decisions. Results were interpreted through thematic analysis. 8 main themes were identified, some of which contained several subthemes. These themes were 1) Managing instruments' stage sound, 2) Monitor systems, 3) PA systems - what sources need reinforcement?, 4) Strategies for even coverage, 5) Sound level management, 6) Limitations of small venues 7) What is "good sound"? and 8) Communication regarding stage sound levels.
