Adil Johan. Cosmopolitan Intimacies. Malay Film Music of the Independence Era. NUS Press. Singapore 2018. XXVII, 387 S. mit einigen schwarzweißen Photoabbildungen im Text sowie Notenbeispielen / with several black and white photographic illustrations in the text and music examples.

Includes bibliographical references and index. Zustand: Einband mit minimalen Lagerspuren. Davon abgesehen von sehr guter Erhaltung. Ungelesen. / Condition: Binding with minimal traces of storage. Apart from that in very good condition. Unread. - Text Hinterdeckel: "The golden age of Malay film in the 1950s and 1960s was the product of a musical and cultural cosmopolitanism in the service of a nation-making process based on ideas of Malay ethnonationalism, initially fluid, increasingly homogenised over time. The commercial films of the period, and in particular their film music, from national cultural icons P. Ramlee and Zubir Said, remain important reference points for Malaysia and Singapore to this day. This is the first in-depth study of the film music of the period. It brings together ethnomusicological and cultural studies perspectives. Written in an engaging manner, thoroughly illustrated and incorporating musical scores, the book will appeal to dedicated film fans, musicians, composers and film-makers interested in Southeast Asia and the Malay world. But equally, the conceptual framework will be of interest to a broad range of scholars of Southeast Asia, as it brings together ideas of cosmopolitanism and cultural intimacy to narrate a history of nation-making in the region.

Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen des Antiquariat Bibliakos / Dr. Ulf Kruse
Angebot und Vertragsschluss: Die Onlinedarstellung meines Sortiments stellt kein bindendes Vertragsangebot dar. Indem der Kunde eine Bestellung an mich schickt, gibt er ein verbindliches Angebot ab. Ich behalte mir die freie Entscheidung über die Annahme dieses Angebots vor. Da ich meine Bücher mehreren Internetplattformen zum Kauf anbiete, kann es zu Überschneidungen von Bestellungen kommen. Bestellungen gelten als angenommen, wenn die Lieferung und Berechnung an den Besteller erfolgt und/oder wenn der Auftrag dem Besteller in Textform bestätigt wird. Soweit eine Bestellung eines Kunden nicht angenommen wird, wird ihm dies unmittelbar mitgeteilt. Ich handle mit gebrauchten respektive antiquarischen Büchern, die auf Grund ihres Alters und/oder Materials Gebrauchsspuren aufweisen können, was im jeweiligen Verkaufspreis bereits angemessen mindernd berücksichtigt worden ist. Die Bücher werden ausschließlich in den in meinem jeweils aktuellen Onlinekatalog angegebenen Ausführungen geliefert. Alle im Katalog angebotenen Werke sind, wenn nicht anders angegeben, in einem dem Alter entsprechenden, guten Zustand. Auf kleinere Mängel des Erhaltungszustands, wie Stempel oder Namen auf Titelblättern, geringe Beschädigungen des Einbandes sowie einzelne Anmerkungen oder einzelne Unterstreichungen, wird in der Regel hingewiesen.
Da ich Kleinunternehmer gemäß § 19 Abs. 1 UStG bin, erhebe ich keine Umsatzsteuer, im Volksmund auch »Mehrwertsteuer« genannt, und weise diese folglich auch nicht aus.
