Gongs and Pop Songs
Scholarship on Indonesia musical tradition has long focused on the gamelan of Java and Bali at the expense of the archipelago's many other musical forms. In an essential addition to literature on ethnomusicology and on Indonesia as a whole. Jennifer A. Fraser finally gives talempong its due. This little-known gong tradition is central to the cultural identity of the Minagkabau people of Sumatra. Gongs and Pop Songs is the first study to chronicle the history and variety of talempong styles. It reveals the continued vitality of older modes in rural communities, while tracing the emergence of newer ones with radically different aesthetic frames and values. The contemporary development in talempong have taken place against a shifting political, social, and economics backdrop that Fraser mines to explore and contexualize the evolution of Minagkabau musical and cultural practices. Fraser looks at how different styles of talempong create and articulate ethnic sentiments. She adopts a congnitive approached to ethnicity, asking how people understand themselves as Minangkabau through the combination of gongs and pop songs. A wealth of online audiovisual materials supplements the book.

Tying the Knot
The Marriage Act 1836 established the foundations of modern marriage law, allowing couples to marry in register offices and non-Anglican places of worship for the first time. Rebecca Probert draws on an exceptionally wide range of primary sources to provide the first detailed examination of marriage legislation, social practice, and their mutual interplay, from 1836 through to the unanticipated demands of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. She analyses how and why the law has evolved, closely interrogating the parliamentary and societal debates behind legislation. She demonstrates how people have chosen to marry and how those choices have changed, and evaluates how far the law has been help or hindrance in enabling couples to marry in ways that reflect their beliefs, be they religious or secular. In an era of individual choice and multiculturalism, Tying the Knot sign posts possible ways in which future legislators might avoid the pitfalls of the past.
