Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, and David Bowie are among three of the
most influential figures in twentieth-century popular music and
culture, and innumerable scholars and biographers have explored the
history of their influence. However, critical historiography
reminds us that such scholarship is responsible not just for
documenting history but also for producing it. In brief, there is
always some kind of logic underwriting these historiographies,
drawing boundaries through and around our thinking. In
Philosophizing Rock Performance: Dylan, Hendrix, Bowie, Wade
Hollingshaus capitalizes on this notion by embracing a set of
historiographical logics that re-imagine these three artists.
Noting how Dylan, Hendrix, and Bowie first established their
reputations amid the anti-establishment sentiments that emerged in
Western counties during the 1960s and early 1970s, he connects them
with the concurrent formative phase of Continental philosophy in
the work of Giorgio Agamben, Jean-Francois Lyotard, Michel de
Certeau, Jacques Ranciere, Guy Debord, and Michel Foucault. In
Philosophizing Rock Performance, Hollingshaus draws on the work of
these latter Continental thinkers to explore how we might otherwise
think about Dylan, Hendrix, and Bowie. This work is ideal for those
in the fields of music history, performance studies, philosophy,
American and European cultural and intellectual history, and
critical theory.
