Books by Richard K. Wolf

A black cow leads the members of a South Indian hill tribe and indicates where to found each village. This book explores how the Kotas "anchor" their activities around places and moments in time and, in the process, constitute themselves as individuals and as a group. This volume also includes a CD of Richard Wolf's Kota field recordings.

Out of Bounds examines Kay Kaufman Shelemay's impact as a pioneer of musical diaspora studies on a generation of scholars. The wide-ranging essays treat such diverse topics as cantorial life in America, gender and fertility among Ethiopians in Israel, transnational performance itineraries of griots and Korean drummers, and video games.
