This book examines how popular music is able to approach subjects
of bio-politics, climate change, solastalgia, and
anthropomorphisation, alongside its more common diet of songs about
love, dancing, and break-ups - all while satisfying its primary
remit of being entertaining and listenable. Nearly a thousand books
have been published on bioethics since Van Rensselaer Potter's
Bioethics Bridge to the Future (1971), with a marked increase in
the past 20 years. However, not one of these books has focused
itself on popular music, something Christopher Partridge describes
as 'central to the construction of [our] identities, central to
[our] sense of self, central to [our] well-being and, therefore,
central to [our] social relations'. This edited collection examines
popular music through a range of topics, from romance to climate
change. Coastal Environments in Popular Song is perfect for
students, scholars, and researchers alike interested in bioethics,
social history, and the history of music.
