Chris TINKER
Georges Brassens & Jacques Brel

Etude en anglais de l'oeuvre des deux chanteurs.

Voici la présentation de l'ouvrage par l'éditeur:
"This book explores the various personal and social narratives within the songs of Brassens and Brel, the auteurs-compositeurs-interprètes who epitomised what is now widely regarded as the golden era of chanson française during the 1950s and 60s. Tinker's discussion reveals the tensions in the narrators' relationship with themselves, other individuals, and society. The book builds upon, and moves beyond, the two dominant critical approaches used to write about French song: the exclusively biographical oriented approach and the purely linguistic analysis. Tinker focuses both on identity, viewed primarily as a relational process, and on representation: linguistic, musical, vocal, and gestural."
