Sonic Ruins of Modernity
Sonic Ruins of Modernity shows how social, cultural and cognitive phenomena interact in the making and distribution of folksongs beyond their time. Through Judeo-Spanish (or Ladino) folksongs, the author illustrates a methodology for the interplay of individual memories, artistic initiatives, political and media policies, which ultimately shape “tradition” for the past century. He fleshes out in a series of case studies how folksongs can be conceived, performed and circulated in the post-tradition era – constituting each song as a “sonic ruin,” as an imagined place. At the same time, the book overall provides a unique perspective on the history of the Judeo-Spanish folksong.

Cante flamenco
Als Produkt der europäischen Romantik wurde der andalusische Flamenco lange Zeit hindurch als geheimnisvoller Ausdruck der Poesie und Musik der gitanos verstanden, verklärt und kommerziell genutzt. Die vorliegende Studie entmystifiziert dieses künstlerische Genre als Kunst-Zigeuner-Kunst der Moderne im Rahmen der Dialektik von Tradition und Innovation im Übergang von der ländlich-agrarischen Volkskultur zur urbanen Populärkultur der bürgerlichen Gesellschaft. Ähnlich wie der amerikanische Blues, der griechische Rebetiko, der argentinische Tango, der portugiesische Fado, der brasilianische Samba oder neuerdings der algerische Raï wird der Flamenco als ethnisch verwurzelte, doch trans...
Edge of Empire
In the first decades of the 1800s, after almost three centuries of Iberian rule, former Spanish territories fragmented into more than a dozen new polities. Edge of Empire analyzes the emergence of Montevideo as a hot spot of Atlantic trade and regional center of power, often opposing Buenos Aires. By focusing on commercial and social networks in the Rio de la Plata region, the book examines how Montevideo merchant elites used transimperial connections to expand their influence and how their trade offered crucial support to Montevideo’s autonomist projects. These transimperial networks offered different political, social, and economic options to local societies and shaped the politics that emerged in the region, including the formation of Uruguay. Connecting South America to the broader Atlantic World, this book provides an excellent case study for examining the significance of cross-border interactions in shaping independence processes and political identities.
