Book Synopsis Salsa Dancing into the Social Sciences by : Kristin Luker
Download or read book Salsa Dancing into the Social Sciences written by Kristin Luker and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-10 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “You might think that dancing doesn’t have a lot to do with social research, and doing social research is probably why you picked this book up in the first place. But trust me. Salsa dancing is a practice as well as a metaphor for a kind of research that will make your life easier and better.” Savvy, witty, and sensible, this unique book is both a handbook for defining and completing a research project, and an astute introduction to the neglected history and changeable philosophy of modern social science. In this volume, Kristin Luker guides novice researchers in: knowing the difference between an area of interest and a research topic; defining the relevant parts of a potentially infinite research literature; mastering sampling, operationalization, and generalization; understanding which research methods best answer your questions; beating writer’s block. Most important, she shows how friendships, non-academic interests, and even salsa dancing can make for a better researcher. “You know about setting the kitchen timer and writing for only an hour, or only 15 minutes if you are feeling particularly anxious. I wrote a fairly large part of this book feeling exactly like that. If I can write an entire book 15 minutes at a time, so can you.”

Written by a musical insider and from the perspective of salsa musicians, Sounding Salsa is a pioneering study that offers detailed accounts of these musicians grappling with intercultural tensions and commercial pressures. Christopher Washburne, himself an accomplished salsa musician, examines the organizational structures, recording processes, rehearsing, and gigging of salsa bands, paying particular attention to how they created a sense of community, privileged "the people" over artistic and commercial concerns, and incited cultural pride during performances.Sounding Salsa addresses a range of issues, musical and social. Musically, Washburne examines sound structure, salsa aesthetics, and performance practice, along with the influences of Puerto Rican music. Socially, he considers the roles of the illicit drug trade, gender, and violence in shaping the salsa experience. Highly readable, Sounding Salsa offers a behind-the-scenes perspective on a musical movement that became a social phenomenon.

Book Synopsis Listening to Salsa by : Frances R. Aparicio
Download or read book Listening to Salsa written by Frances R. Aparicio and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the MLA's Katherine Singer Kovacs Prize for an outstanding book published in English in the field of Latin American and Spanish literatures and culture (1999) For Anglos, the pulsing beats of salsa, merengue, and bolero are a compelling expression of Latino/a culture, but few outsiders comprehend the music's implications in larger social terms. Frances R. Aparicio places this music in context by combining the approaches of musicology and sociology with literary, cultural, Latino, and women's studies. She offers a detailed genealogy of Afro-Caribbean music in Puerto Rico, comparing it to selected Puerto Rican literary texts, then looks both at how Latinos/as in the US have used salsa to reaffirm their cultural identities and how Anglos have eroticized and depoliticized it in their adaptations. Aparicio's detailed examination of lyrics shows how these songs articulate issues of gender, desire, and conflict, and her interviews with Latinas/os reveal how they listen to salsa and the meanings they find in it. What results is a comprehensive view "that deploys both musical and literary texts as equally significant cultural voices in exploring larger questions about the power of discourse, gender relations, intercultural desire, race, ethnicity, and class."

Download or read book Cuban Fire written by Isabelle Leymarie and published by Bloomsbury Continuum. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Cuban Fire, the prize-winning author Isabelle Leymarie tells the thrilling story of popular music of Cuban origin and its major artists from the 1920s to today. Afro-Cuban music derives its richness from the fusion of many cultures. On the island of tobacco, rum and coffee, nicknamed 'The Green Caiman' because of its long and curvy shape, the wedding of sacred and secular African musical genres with Spanish and French melodies gave rise to numerous genres that have gained international fame- son, rhumba, guaracha, conga, mambo, cha-cha-cha, pachanga, and nueva timba. The history of Cuban music also unfolds in the United States, where large Cuban, Puerto Rican, Dominican and other Hispanic communities have established themselves over the years. It was in New York, indeed, that the boogaloo, salsa and Latin jazz, created by such musicians as Machito, Mario Bauz , Dizzy Gillespie and Chano Pozo, emerged out of the contact with the Puerto Ricans and African-Americans of that city. This major reference book also deals with the incandescent rhythms of Puerto Rico and -- to a lesser degree -- Santo Domingo, integrated today into salsa and Latin jazz.

Book Synopsis Jesus Makes Salsa by the Seashore by : Troy Dungan
Download or read book Jesus Makes Salsa by the Seashore written by Troy Dungan and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of my most enjoyable and enlightening experiences was going to lunch with Troy Dungan. Not just any lunch, but the weekly Wednesday Bible study lunches where media folks from the Dallas Morning News and Troys WFAA-TV station would gather to hear Troys take on a Bible passage. His knowledge on the Scripture and his perspectives on life were always insightful and enriched my faith. They also strengthened my courage to face the rest of the week. This book is a must-read over and over. Stewart Lytle, journalist and novelist Gathering each week, we could almost smell the fish and spices from Jesuss breakfast fire. We prayed for Idgie the dog and for a child with cancer. Absorbing Troys poignant lessons, we tasted Jesuss own special sauce. These lessons enriched us; they changed our lives. Phil Oakley, journalist and author Troy Dungans studies are refreshingly creative and biblically on target. I love how he thinks about teaching the Scriptures. He makes me smile, laugh, and reflect on the Scriptures in a very personal way. I cannot help but think, I wish I had thought of it that way. I sat there with him on more than one occasion when he led these studies at Channel 8, and I watched God encourage people through his studies. God has gifted Troy with wonderful creativity and insight of getting to the point. Dr. Harold Habecker, longtime senior pastor of Dallas Bible Church, founder of Finishing Well Ministries

Download or read book Salsa Chica written by Solange Castro and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once Solange began to dance salsa she did little else. She worked and she danced. Try as she may, she could not imagine a more desirable way to spend her time. She became a "Salsera" or a "Salsa Chica," a woman who rearranges her entire life to accommodate her need to dance as much as humanly possible. It was a big experiment at first. What would happen if she danced night after night? Would her body fall apart? Would she be able to function at work? Would her mom get mad? She just lost weight and toned her body without getting on a hamster torture device. She grew more comfortable in her skin, developed confidence, became friends with people from different cultures, learned about music, and fell in love with the "wrong guys," - Salsa Guys - who weren't that different from other "wrong guys" but these guys could dance. Like every other Salsa Chica she struggled with her passions, choices, and technique. In "Salsa Chica: How I Learned To Dance Salsa And Avoid Real Life," Solange recounts the journey of learning to dance salsa and how it transformed and maybe even saved her life.
