Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Umm Kulthum redefined Arab songwriting, creating music deeply rooted in Egyptian culture during a time of colonial influence and modern trends. Her work earned her respect in a male-dominated society, where musicians often faced marginalization. Despite not being overtly political, her performances resonated with the nationalist sentiments of her era, allowing her to express pride in her heritage. Critics like Philip V. Bohlman highlight her unique position in world music, emphasizing that her songs, while rich in global significance, remained profoundly personal and local for listeners.
