Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the role of popular music in shaping contemporary British identity, the book critiques the cultural and nationalist narratives that have emerged since the 1960s. It argues that popular music has eclipsed literature as a key expression of modern British culture, influencing various sectors such as media and politics. The study highlights two conflicting views of music: as a representation of indigenous English culture and as a voice for a revived British Empire. These perspectives limit the recognition of the nation's diverse cultural landscape, offering a comprehensive analysis of their implications on national identity.
