A propos de cet article

Neuware -This book interrogates the notion of belonging through musicing rituals in the South African context. The authors raise questions such as «What can we learn from musicing rituals », «What does it mean to belong through musicing » and «In what ways could musicing address marginalization and transform a broken society »To answer these questions, the editors employ a range of perspectives from micro-sociological theory to personal accounts of marginalization and belonging through musicing. The contributors employ both established and novel qualitative strategies of inquiry including case studies, narrative inquiry, performative autoethnography, practice as research, and interpretive phenomenological analysis, amongst others.Although this book focuses on musicing in the South African context, international readers will also benefit from the rich theoretical and methodological contributions in this volume. It investigates the potentiality of cultivating a sense of belonging through musicing rituals to heal a mutilated world. The contributions will inform and enhance readers¿ repertoire of musicing strategies in both community and educational contexts.This work is based on the research supported in part by the National Research Foundation of South Africa (Grant Numbers: 118579). The Grantholder, Prof Liesl van der Merwe,¿acknowledges that opinions, findings and conclusions or recommendations expressed in¿Ritualised¿Belonging,¿generated by the NRF supported research (Grant Numbers: 118579), is that of the authors, and that the NRF accepts no liability whatsoever in this regard.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 432 pp. Englisch.
