Writing in Music demystifies music writing conventions and methods
by offering strategies for the types of writing that students most
often encounter in college courses on music. The book offers
guidance through the writing process and, for research assignments,
through the research process. Geared for an audience of music
majors and other students taking undergraduate music-major
courses--as well as for master's students in music desiring more
training in academic writing--Writing in Music covers the two
approaches common to academic coursework in virtually all
music-major programs: the study of music with a focus on its
cultural and historical contexts, and the exploration of works
using the tools of music analysis. Whether students want to apply a
specific approach or take a broader, interdisciplinary stance, this
guide prepares them to think and write about music.
This annotated bibliography uncovers the wealth of resources
available on the life and music of John Cage, one of the most
influential and fascinating composers of the twentieth-century. The
guide will focus on documentary studies, archival resources,
scholarly research, and autobiographical materials, and place the
composer and his work in a larger context of postmodern philosophy,
art and theater movements, and contemporary politics. It will
support emerging scholarship and inquiry for future research on
Cage, with carefully selected sources and useful annotations.
Three hundred and fifty years ago, Roger Williams launched one of
the world's first great experiments in religious toleration.
Insisting that religion be separated from civil power, he founded
Rhode Island, a colony that welcomed people of many faiths. Though
stark forms of intolerance persisted, Williams' commitments to
faith and liberty of conscience came to define the nation and its
conception of itself. Through crisp essays that show how Americans
demolished old prejudices while inventing new ones, The Lively
Experiment offers a comprehensive account of America's boisterous
history of interreligious relations.

Teaching Music History with Cases introduces a pedagogical approach
to music history instruction in university coursework. What
constitutes a music-historical "case?" How do we use them in the
classroom? In business and the hard sciences, cases are problems
that need solutions. In a field like music history, a case is not
always a problem, but often an exploration of a context or concept
that inspires deep inquiry. Such cases are narratives of rich,
complex moments in music history that inspire questions of similar
or related moments. This book guides instructors through the
process of designing a curriculum based on case studies, finding
and writing case studies, and guiding class discussions of cases.

The prostitution of the German psychiatric profession into a Nazi
inquisitional tool was a major factor producing the total
degradation of German medicine and moral ity. Its low point was its
psychiatrists killing the patients they were sworn to care for, and
its other physicians performing inhuman experiments on patients
they were pledged to treat. In America also, psychiatry has been
performing some of the functions of an In quisition: injuring
innocents, both patients and dissenters, and exculpating crimi
nals, terrorists especially. Innocents are being injured both in
and out of psychiatric hospitals. The in creased fragmentation of
care, the augmentation of its discontinuities, and assign ing the
responsibility for organizing it to non-medical managers are some
of the fac tors worsening the treatment results of our hospitals.
Wrongful deaths, due largely to the specialty's intoxication with
drugs while ignoring the importance of common human decency, have
become a national scandal."
The settlers of New Netherland were obligated to uphold religious
toleration as a legal right by the Dutch Republic's founding
document, the 1579 Union of Utrecht, which stated that "everyone
shall remain free in religion and that no one may be persecuted or
investigated because of religion." For early American historians
this statement, unique in the world at its time, lies at the root
of American pluralism. New Netherland and the Dutch Origins of
American Religious Liberty offers a new reading of the way
tolerance operated in colonial America. Using sources in several
languages and looking at laws and ideas as well as their
enforcement and resistance, Evan Haefeli shows that, although
tolerance as a general principle was respected in the colony, there
was a pronounced struggle against it in practice. Crucial to the
fate of New Netherland were the changing religious and political
dynamics within the English empire. In the end, Haefeli argues, the
most crucial factor in laying the groundwork for religious
tolerance in colonial America was less what the Dutch did than
their loss of the region to the English at a moment when the
English were unusually open to religious tolerance. This legacy,
often overlooked, turns out to be critical to the history of
American religious diversity. By setting Dutch America within its
broader imperial context, New Netherland and the Dutch Origins of
American Religious Liberty offers a comprehensive and nuanced
history of a conflict integral to the histories of the Dutch
republic, early America, and religious tolerance.
On February 29, 1704, a party of French and Indian raiders
descended on the Massachusetts village of Deerfield, killing fifty
residents and capturing more than a hundred others. In this
masterful work of history, Evan Haefeli and Kevin Sweeney reexamine
the Deerfield attack and place it within a framework stretching
from the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes. Drawing on previously
untapped sources, they show how the assault grew out of the
aspirations of New England family farmers, the ambitions of
Canadian colonists, the calculations of French officials, the fears
of Abenaki warriors, and the grief of Mohawk women as they all
struggled to survive the ongoing confrontation of empires and
cultures. Haefeli and Sweeney reconstruct events from multiple
points of view, through the stories of a variety of individuals
involved. These stories begin in the Native, French, and English
communities of the colonial Northeast, then converge in the
February 29 raid, as a force of more than two hundred Frenchmen,
Abenakis, Hurons, Kahnawake Mohawks, Pennacooks, and Iroquois of
the Mountain overran the northwesternmost village of the New
England frontier. Although the inhabitants put up more of a fight
than earlier accounts of the so-called Deerfield Massacre have
suggested, the attackers took 112 men, women, and children captive.
The book follows the raiders and their prisoners on the harsh
three-hundred-mile trek back to Canada and into French and Native
communities. Along the way the authors examine how captives and
captors negotiated cultural boundaries and responded to the claims
of competing faiths and empires--all against a backdrop of
continuing warfare. By giving equal weight to all participants,
Haefeli and Sweeney range across the fields of social, political,
literary, religious, and military history, and reveal connections
between cultures and histories usually seen as separate.

Music education today requires an approach rooted in care and
kindness that coexists alongside the dismantling of systems that
fail to serve our communities in higher education. But, as the
essayists in Sound Pedagogy show, the structural aspects of music
study in higher education present obstacles to caring and kindness
like the entrenched master-student model, a neoliberal
individualist and competitive mindset, and classical music’s
white patriarchal roots. The editors of this volume curate essays
that use a broad definition of care pedagogy, one informed by
interdisciplinary scholarship and aimed at providing practical
strategies for bringing transformative learning and engaged
pedagogies to music classrooms. The contributors draw from personal
experience to address issues including radical kindness through
universal design; listening to non-human musicality; public
musicology as a forum for social justice discourse; and radical
approaches to teaching about race through music. Contributors:

The United States has long been defined by its religious diversity
and recurrent public debates over the religious and political
values that define it. In Accidental Pluralism, Evan Haefeli argues
that America did not begin as a religiously diverse and tolerant
society. It became so only because England's religious unity
collapsed just as America was being colonized. By tying the
emergence of American religious toleration to global events,
Haefeli creates a true transnationalist history that links
developing American realities to political and social conflicts and
resolutions in Europe, showing how the relationships among states,
churches, and publics were contested from the beginning of the
colonial era and produced a society that no one had anticipated.
Accidental Pluralism is an ambitious and comprehensive new account
of the origins of American religious life that compels us to refine
our narratives about what came to be seen as American values and
their distinct relationship to religion and politics.
