Culture Unbound: Journal of Current Cultural Research, Vol 4: Shanghai Modern: The Future in Microcosm? (2012)

5 April 2012, dusan

Culture Unbound: Journal of Current Cultural Research is a journal for border-crossing cultural research, globally open to articles from all areas in this large field, including cultural studies as well as other interdisciplinary and transnational currents for exploring cultural perspectives, issues and phenomena. It is peer-reviewed and easily accessible for downloading as open access.

This issue of the journal gathers articles that represent a range of different reflections on Shanghai past and present. The global city of Shanghai is taken as a starting point to explore issues of urban space, modernity, and the Chinese transition in the twentieth and twenty-first century. And it also allows
for contributions that challenge the traditional forms of academic representation to explore the modern city in a more essayistic manner.

Alan Lomax: Selected Writings, 1934-1997 (2003)

5 April 2012, dusan

Alan Lomax is a legendary figure in American folk music circles. Although he published many books, hundreds of recordings and dozens of films, his contributions to popular and academic journals have never been collected. This collection of writings, introduced by Lomax’s daughter Anna, reintroduces these essential writings. Drawing on the Lomax Archives in New York, this book brings together articles from the 30s onwards. It is divided into four sections, each capturing a distinct period in the development of Lomax’s life and career: the original years as a collector and promoter; the period from 1950-58 when Lomax was recording thorughout Europe; the folk music revival years; and finally his work in academia.
