Translation, Adaptation, and Intertextuality in Hungarian Popular Music Hardback
Edited by Adam Ignacz
Part of the Jazz Under State Socialism series
Hardback
Description
This volume undertakes a comprehensive examination of issues of translation, adaptation, and intertextuality in Hungarian popular music.
Focusing on the period of state socialism, the authors provide various examples of how musicians – professionals and amateurs alike – borrowed songs from distant times and places, reinventing them in a new political, technological, and esthetic environment.
The case studies deal with a wide range of genresand styles that played an important role in Hungary, such as operetta, protest song, folk, jazz, pop, and rock.
Placing the Hungarian experience in a regional context, the collection also gives insight into the music scenes of the neighboring countries through a major comparative study on the Beatles adaptations in the Eastern Bloc.
