  • - Music, "Race," and Intellectuals in France, 1918-1945
    by Jeremy F. Lane
    £74.99

    This is a bold challenge to the existing homogenous picture of the reception of American jazz in world-war era France. Lane's book is the first to examine the responses of diasporic French Africans and Antilleans to the music they first heard in Paris in the interwar years, analysing the place of jazz within the emerging negritude and creolite movements.

  • - A Critical Introduction
    by Jeremy F. Lane
    £29.99

    'This beautifully written and lucidly argued study is the most persuasive account of Bourdieu's work yet to be published. Lane illuminates much that can puzzle a foreign readership by expertly situating Bourdieu within a French context. At the same time he points to those aspects of Bourdieu's writing which are of particular relevance to contemporary debates on questions of citizenship and globalisation. He gives a fascinating account of Bourdieu's astonishingly prescient analyses of the impact of the expansion of higher education, the influence of the mass media, the growth of the culture industries, and the changing nature of political and social elites, not just in France, but in the western world.' - Professor Jill Forbes, Queen Mary and Westfield, University of London
