Mann S. 13 5.Fazit S. 14 6.Literatur- und Quellenverzeichnis S. 15 Die vorliegende Hausarbeit behandelt die im Seminar Strukturen afrikanischer Musik erar-beiteten Ergebnisse und ordnet das eigene Thema Popul?re Musik aus Ghana: Die Krise des Highlife - Ver?nderungen in der Musikkultur in den Gesamtkontext ein. Grundlagen dieser Hausarbeit sind ein dreimonatiger Aufenthalt in Ghana im Jahre 2004, eine Publika-tion von Prof. Dr. John Collins 'Highlife-Time' und die im Seminar besprochenen Schwer-punkte. Im Zentrum des ersten Teils dieser Arbeit steht die Entstehung des Highlife, an der die west-liche Kultur, bedingt durch die jahrelange Kolonialpolitik europ?ischer Staaten entlang der westafrikanischen K?ste, gro?en Anteil hatte. Im weiteren Verlauf soll aufgezeigt werden, in welche Richtung sich dieses popul?re Musikgenre in Ghana entwickelt hat. Im Fokus steht die seit Ende der 1970er Jahre einsetzende Krise der Highlife-Musik. Sp?testens seit Aufkommen des Hiplife in den sp?ten 90er Jahren, dessen musikkulturelle Stellung in Kapitel drei n?her untersucht wird, m?ssen sich ehemals landesweit bekannte Highlife-Musiker wie beispielsweise C.K. Mann von utopischen Gedankeng?ngen verabschieden, den Highlife zu einem zweiten Fr?hling verhelfen zu k?nnen. Eine Interviewanalyse mit dem eben ge-nannten K?nstler in Kapitel vier verdeutlicht die Situation vor Ort in Ghana.

<p>Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Musikwissenschaft, Note: 2,0, Universit?t Potsdam, 20 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Highlife hat sich im 20. Jahrhundert zu einer wichtigen popul?ren Musik- und Tanzform in Ghana etabliert, an dessen Entstehung und Weiterentwicklung ausl?ndische Einfl?sse seit der Kolonialzeit einen gro?en Anteil haben. Der erste Kontakt mit europ?ischen Kolonialm?chten vollzog sich bereits 1471, als portugiesische Seefahrer das erste Mal nach Ghana, der damaligen Goldk?ste, kamen. Unterschiedliche Kolonialm?chte aus Europa errichteten im Laufe der Zeit Ansiedlungen entlang der westafrikanischen K?ste. Religi?se und musikkulturelle Einfl?sse des Auslandes pr?gten die Entwicklung der ghanaischen popul?ren Musik entscheidend, womit sich der erste Teil der vorliegenden Bachelor-Arbeit befasst. Im Hauptteil wird die Krise des Highlife seit den sp?ten 1970er Jahren n?her untersucht und durch verschiedene Faktoren unterstrichen.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 571円

Female Highlife Performers in Ghana Expression, Resistance, and Advocacy【電子書籍】[ Nana Abena Amoah-Ramey ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book offers a detailed analysis of the history of female musicians in the Highlife music tradition of the Republic of Ghana, particularly the challenges and constraints these women faced and overcame. Highlife ? a form of West African music infusing Ghana’s traditional Akan dance rhythms and melodies with European instruments and harmonies ? grew in popularity throughout the 20th century and hit its peak in the 1970s and 1980s. Although women played significant roles in the evolution and survival of the genre, few of their contributions have been thoroughly explored or documented. Despite being disregarded and ignored in many spheres, female Highlife musicians thrived and became trailblazers in the Ghanaian music industry, making particularly vibrant contributions to Highlife music in the 1970s. This book presents the voices of female Highlife artists and documents the ideological transformations expressed through their musical works, exploring the challenges they confronted throughout their musical careers and their contributions to music and culture in Ghana.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,002円

Zu: John Colins - Highlife Time - Concert Partys und Highlife Musik Highlife Time - Concert Partys und Highlife Musik【電子書籍】[ Marcel Hylla ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Rezension / Literaturbericht aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Musikwissenschaft, Note: 1.3, Universit?t Paderborn (Musikhochschule Detmold), Veranstaltung: Musik und soziale Teilungen in multiethnischen Gesellschaften, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In seinem 1996 ver?ffentlichten Buch 'Highlife Time' beschreibt John Colins die in Ghana wichtigste und popul?rste, vorkommende Tanzmusik, die sogenannte 'Highlife-Musik'. Ihre Wurzeln liegen laut Colins in den Blaskapellen, den Tanzorchestern und den Gitarren, sowie Akkordeon Palmwine Gruppen des sp?ten 19. und fr?hen 20. Jahrhunderts. In der heutigen Zeit zeigen sich weiterhin starke Verbindungen zu den sogenannten Concert Party Gruppen und ihren Gitarrenbands auf. Bei diesen Concert Party Gruppen handelt es sich vorwiegend um professionelle K?nstler, die neben der Highlife Tanzmusik auch Theater, Akrobatik und Zaubervorstellungen f?r die urbane Landbev?lkerung und f?r die arme Bev?lkerung der St?dte darbieten. In der ersten H?lfte des 20. Jahrhunderts avancierten diese Bands zur kulturell vorantreibenden Kraft Ghanas. In der Folgezeit, den sp?ten 1960er Jahren, sollten diese Bands dann zu einem wesentlichen Einflussfaktor f?r die popul?ren ghanaischen Musiker werden. Grundlegend f?r die Entwicklung der Concert Partys waren die im Zuge der Kolonialisierung nach Ghana 'eingef?hrten' westlichen Konzerte. Hierbei spielen z.B. die allj?hrlichen Schulkonzerte zur Feier des British Empire Days (24.Mai), und die sogenannten Cantatas, bei denen biblische Geschichten aufgef?hrt werden, eine wichtige Rolle f?r die Etablierung der westlichen B?hnenperformances in der ghanaischen Kultur.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 242円

A Marriage in High Life (Complete)【電子書籍】[ Caroline Lucy Scott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Easter was now fast approaching, and Fitzhenry announced to Emmeline his intention of going out of town for a fortnight,ーbut not to ArlingfordーAnd he concluded by saying, that, of course, he supposed she would like to pass the time with her father at Charlton. At any other time, and under any other circumstances, how gladly would she have availed herself of the opportunity of returning to her former, peaceful, happy home! But, like a sick person, her feverish mind had for some time past dwelt on Arlingford. She longed to find herself again there, for there, they must meetーthere they might be alone! and she could not help hoping for some explanation between them, which might make her, at least, less miserable. Fitzhenry’s manner towards her had of late changed: it had no longer the ease of indifference, the coldness of mere civility; but, alas! it had only changed to apparent dislike, or at least displeasure. He observed her more; but his observations seemed always to prejudice him still more against her. And yet, what could she do? or what leave undone? She had tried all means to please him, and all had failed. She first had followed the dictates of her own heart, and then, relying on Pelham’s knowledge of her husband’s character, and on his advice, she had played a part most unnatural to herーthat of a gay, unfeeling woman of the world, when her heart was breaking. All, in turn, seemed to be wrong. For an instant, a horrid thought had crossed her mind. Could Pelham be deceiving her? Could he, for any view, either of his own, or Fitzhenry’s, be endeavouring to draw her on to what was lowering her still more in her husband’s opinion? Was Pelham untrue to his friend? or what would be still worse, was it a concerted plan, to exasperate her, and at last to force her to break a connexion, which, to her husband, had become intolerable thraldom. Emmeline, shuddering, turned away from such thoughts, almost reproaching herself for ingratitude in having, even for a moment, entertained them. But again disappointed in what she had looked to with some degree of satisfaction, and finding she must relinquish even those faint hopes which she had built, on their return to Arlingford, her sick mind preyed on itself, and conjured up these painful surmises, producing doubt and suspicion in the most confiding of all characters. Emmeline heard Fitzhenry’s notification about leaving town in silent acquiescence; and, having no choice, to Charlton she went; but her heart sank within her as she drove up to her father’s door, for, aware of how much she was changed, she dreaded her parents’ observation, and feared, that when constantly in their society, she could not keep up those false spirits which she always endeavoured to assume when with them. Poor Emmeline was in truth sadly changed. Instead of the active, cheerful being she used to be, she was now generally abstracted, and sometimes even apparently totally insensible to every thing around her; and then, when fearful of betraying herself, she suddenly broke forth into those unnatural bursts of feverish spirits, so painful to witness, because so evidently proceeding from internal suffering.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

No Dream Is Too High Life Lessons From a Man Who Walked on the Moon【電子書籍】[ Ken Abraham ]

<p>Beloved American hero and astronaut Buzz Aldrin reflects on the wisdom, guiding principles, and irreverent anecdotes he's gatheredーboth in outer space and on earthーthrough his event-filled life, in this inspiring guide-to-life for the next generation.</p> <p>Everywhere he goes, crowds gather to meet Buzz Aldrin. He is a world-class hero, a larger-than-life figurehead, best known of a generation of astronauts whose achievements surged in just a few years from first man in space to first men on the moon. Now he pauses to reflect and share what he has learned, from the vantage point not only of outer space but also of time: still a non-stop traveler and impassioned advocate for space exploration, Aldrin will be 86 in 2016.</p> <p>No Dream Is Too High whittles down Buzz Aldrin's event-filled life into a short list of principles he values, each illustrated by fascinating anecdotes and memories, such as:</p> <p>・ Second comes right after first. NASA protocol should have meant he was first on the moon, but rules changed just before the mission. How he learned to be proud of being the second man on the moon.</p> <p>・ Look for opportunities, not obstacles. Buzz was rejected the first time he applied to be an astronaut. Failure is an opportunity to learn to do better.</p> <p>・ Always maintain your spirit of adventure. For his 80th birthday, Buzz went diving in the Galapagos and hitched a ride on a whale shark. He stays fit, energetic, and fascinated with life.</p> <p>No Dream Is Too High is a beautiful memento, a thought-provoking set of ideas, and a new opportunity for Buzz Aldrin to connect with the masses of people who recognize his unique place in human history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,067円

Mr Darley's Arabian High Life, Low Life, Sporting Life: A History of Racing in 25 Horses: Shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award【電子書籍】[ Christopher McGrath ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award</strong></p> <p>In 1704 a bankrupt English merchant sent home the colt he had bought from Bedouin tribesmen near the ruins of Palmyra. Thomas Darley hoped this horse might be the ticket to a new life back in Yorkshire. But he turned out to be far more than that: and although Mr Darley's Arabian never ran a race, 95% of all thoroughbreds in the world today are descended from him. In this book, for the first time, award-winning racing writer Christopher McGrath traces this extraordinary bloodline through twenty-five generations to our greatest modern racehorse, Frankel.</p> <p>The story of racing is about man's relationship with horses, and <em>Mr Darley's Arabian</em> also celebrates the men and women who owned, trained and traded the stallions that extended the dynasty. The great Eclipse, for instance, was bred by the Duke who foiled Bonnie Prince Charlie's invasion (with militia gathered from Wakefield races) and went on to lead the Jockey Club. But he only became a success once bought and raced by a card-sharp and brothel-keeper - the racecourse has always brought high and low life together.</p> <p>McGrath expertly guides us through three centuries of scandals, adventures and fortunes won and lost: our sporting life offers a fascinating view into our history. With a canvas that extends from the diamond mines of South Africa to the trenches of the Great War, and a cast ranging from Smithfield meat salesmen to the inspiration for Mr Toad, and from legendary jockeys to not one, but two disreputable Princes of Wales (and a very unamused Queen Victoria), <em>Mr Darley's Arabian</em> shows us the many faces of the sport of kings.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,708円

A Hairdresser's Experience in High Life【電子書籍】[ Eliza Potter ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Potter was a freeborn black woman who, as a hairdresser, was in a unique position to hear about, receive confidences from, and observe wealthy white womenーand she recorded it all in a revelatory book that delighted Cincinnati's gossip columnists at the time. But more important is Potter's portrait of herself as a wage-earning woman, proud of her work, who earned high pay and accumulated quite a bit of money as one of the nation's earliest "beauticians" at a time when most black women worked at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder. Because her work offered insights into the private lives of elite white women, Potter carved out a literary space that featured a black working woman at the center, rather than at the margins, of the era's transformations in gender, race, and class structure.-Print ed.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 399円

The High Life A Journey Through the World of Weed【電子書籍】[ Harper B. Caldwell ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Did you know that cannabis, commonly known as weed, has been used by humans for thousands of years? This fascinating plant has a rich history and diverse cultural significance across different regions of the world. From its origins in ancient civilizations to its modern-day status as a controversial subject, weed has captivated the attention of researchers, enthusiasts, and policymakers alike. In this article, we will explore the intriguing world of weed, delving into its historical significance, medicinal properties, and the ongoing debates surrounding its legalization. One cannot discuss the history of weed without acknowledging its deep roots in human civilization. The earliest recorded use of cannabis dates back to ancient China, where it was cultivated for its versatile fibers and seeds. In ancient India, it was regarded as a sacred plant and used in religious rituals. Cannabis also played a role in the traditions of ancient Egypt, with evidence suggesting its use in medicinal and religious contexts.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 363円

Feminist Posthumanism in Contemporary Science Fiction Film and Media From Annihilation to High Life and Beyond【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Feminist Posthumanism in Contemporary Science Fiction Film and Media: From</em> Annihilation <em>to</em> High Life <em>and Beyond</em> places posthumanism and feminist theory into dialogue with contemporary science fiction film and media. This essay collection is intimately invested in the debates around the posthuman and the critical posthumanities within a feminist critical-theoretical framework.</p> <p>In this posthumanist light, science fiction as a genre allows for new imaginings of human-technological relations, while it can also be the site of a critique of human exceptionalism and essentialism. In this way, science fiction affords unique opportunities for the scholarly investigation of the relevance and relative applicability of specific posthumanist themes and questions in a particularly rich and wide-ranging popular cultural field of production. One of the reasons for this suitability is the genre's historically longstanding relationship with the critical investigation of gender, specifically the position and relative empowerment of women.</p> <p>The original analyses presented here pay close attention to audiovisual style (including game mechanics), facilitating the critical interrogation of the issues and questions around posthumanism. Where typically the mention of SF in the posthumanist context calls to mind a whole set of (often clich?d) tropes-the cyborg, technologically augmented bodies, AI subjectivities, etc.-this volume's thirteen chapters analyze specific examples of contemporary SF cinema that engage in meaningful ways with the burgeoning field of critical posthumanism, and that utilize such films to interrogate posthumanist and feminist as well as humanistic ideas.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 12,243円

Filling in the Gaps My Hi-de-High Life - The Sequel【電子書籍】[ Peter Keogh ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Filling in the Gaps follows on from Peter Keogh’s acclaimed and popular autobiography My Hi-de-Highlife: Before, During and After Su Pollard. This exciting sequel explores aspects of Peter’s life that were left out of his autobiography, including how a gay boy raised on a farm, and in spite of abuse both physical and emotional, was finally able to come out as a homosexual man. This book is at times comical, sexual and heartbreaking and provides further insight into Peter’s relationships with people like Debbie Reynolds, Australian producer John Frost and a distasteful encounter with a famous English MP. The book also reveals more of Peter’s life with the stars, his well-publicised trial in London and his relationship with his partner of 25 years, Sacha. Peter’s life has been a complex mix of highs and lows and his experiences have ranged from hilarious to terrifying. Filling in the Gap details how, against difficult odds, Peter has managed to survive to be the man he is today and will inspire people of all ages, gay or straight, to realise that there is light at the end of every dark tunnel.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

He was 56 years old and on his way home to his 28-year-old fifth wife, Odile Rodin, after a night's debauch in celebration of a victorious polo match.</p> <p>In the previous four decades, Rubirosa had on four separate occasions married one of the wealthiest women in the world, and had slept with hundreds of other women including Marilyn Monroe, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Ava Gardner, and Eva Peron. He had worked as aide-de-camp to one of the most vicious fascists the century ever knew. He had served as an ambassador to France, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Argentina and Vichy. He had been a jewel thief, a forger, a shipping magnate, a treasure hunter. He had held his own with the world's most powerful and notorious men including John F. Kennedy, Josef Goebbels and Juan Peron. He ran comfortably celebrity circles, counting among his friends Frank Sinatra, Ted Kennedy, David Niven, Sammy Davis Jr., and fellow playboy Aly Khan.</p> <p>He lived for the moment and, at his death, faded without a legacy: no children, no fortune, no entity ? financial, cultural, even architectural ? that bore his name. There will never be anyone else like Porfiro Rubirosa. Indeed, the really amazing thing is that there ever was. Shawn Levy ? celebrated author of RAT PACK CONFIDENTIAL, and READY, STEADY, GO ? has been given unique access to primary material including FBI and CIA files in his search for the last playboy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,044円

Stakes Is High Life After the American Dream【電子書籍】[ Mychal Denzel Smith ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Brave, clear-eyed, and passionate, <em>Stakes Is High</em> is the book we need to guide us past crisis mode and through an uncertain future.</strong></p> <p>The events of the past decade have forced us to reckon with who we are and who we want to be. We have been invested in a set of beliefs about our American identity: our exceptionalism, the inevitable rightness of our path, the promise that hard work and determination will carry us to freedom. But in <em>Stakes Is High</em>, Mychal Denzel Smith confronts the shortcomings of these stories -- and with the American Dream itself -- and calls on us to live up to the principles we profess but fail to realize.</p> <p>In a series of incisive essays, Smith exposes the stark contradictions at the heart of American life, holding all of us, individually and as a nation, to account. We've gotten used to looking away, but the fissures and casual violence of institutional oppression are ever-present.</p> <p>There is a future that is not as grim as our past. In this profound work, Smith helps us envision it with care, honesty, and imagination.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,175円

High Life Condo Living in the Suburban Century【電子書籍】[ Matthew Lasner ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The first comprehensive architectural and cultural history of condominium and cooperative housing in twentieth-century America.</strong></p> <p>Today, one in five homeowners in American cities and suburbs lives in a multifamily home rather than a single-family house. As the American dream evolves, precipitated by rising real estate prices and a renewed interest in urban living, many predict that condos will become the predominant form of housing in the twenty-first century. In this unprecedented study, Matthew Gordon Lasner explores the history of co-owned multifamily housing in the United States, from New York City’s first co-op, in 1881, to contemporary condominium and townhouse complexes coast to coast. Lasner explains the complicated social, economic, and political factors that have increased demand for this way of living, situating the trend within the larger housing market and broad shifts in residential architecture and family life. He contrasts the prevalence and popularity of condos, townhouses, and other privately governed communities with their ambiguous economic, legal, and social standing, as well as their striking absence from urban and architectural history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,205円

The Actress In High Life an episode in winter quarters【電子書籍】[ Sue Petigru Bowen ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Sue Petigru Bowen's short tale "The Actress in High Life" is set in a military barracks in the middle of the 19th century. The narrative centres on Lieutenant Goring, a young actress who visits the camp to provide a performance for the troops. The male campers take to Goring right away, while the female campers are hostile and envious of him. Goring, who is already betrothed to another lady in the camp, is not happy to just entertain the troops; instead, she sets her eyes on Carter. As a result of Fanny's pursuit of Lieutenant Carter, there is tension and drama in the camp, and there is simmering hatred and rivalry among the officers and troops. The narrative examines the intricate power relationships between men and women as well as the difficulties women experienced in the 19th-century society that was mostly male. In the end, Fanny is able to win Lieutenant Carter over, but the narrative closes on a depressing note since it is obvious that her experience at the camp had tremendous influence on the people she met. "The Actress in High Life" is a provocative examination of gender roles and relationships in the setting of a military community overall.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 132円
