Join us for a discussion of the article Peircean Thought as Core Theory for a Phenomenological Ethnomusicology, with Thomas Turino.
Thomas Turino is Professor Emeritus of musicology and anthropology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is the author of two books about music in Peru, a book about Nationalism, Cosmopolitanism, and Popular Music in Zimbabwe, editor of Identity and the Arts in Diaspora Communities, and most recently Music as Social Life: The Politics of Participation. Dr. Turino’s discussion will center on analytical approaches to specific instances of experience and the series of powerful conceptual tools Peircean theory provides for ethnomusicologists and scholars in other ethnographic disciplines.
Please RSVP to Michelle Wibbelsman to confirm participation and to obtain a copy of this article for discussion.
