CONCLUSIONS: THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC.This text is an original and unique introduction to musical semiotics through the use of popular music acts and repertoires of global cultural impact. The basic idea of this is that the songs of The Beatles, Queen, ABBA, Madonna, Michael Jackson and others have become a lingua franca in nearly all cultures, thus making for excellent examples to illustrate musical semiotic theories. “’Heroes’” can perfectly explain Eero Tarasti’s Actantial Model, “Bohemian Rhapsody” is ideal to describe Tzvetan Todorov’s Equilibrium Theory, and so forth. Through case studies, in-depth analysis, original theoretical contributions from the author, but also a comprehensible and enjoyable writing style, this volume will be an engaging reading for students and at the same time an aid for instructors in semiotics, musicology and popular music studies.Religion and Philosophy SeriesSemioticsLinguisticsArtsSemioticsLinguisticsArtsSemiotics.Linguistics.Arts.Semiotics.Linguistics.Arts.401.4Martinelli Dario886728MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9911046537003321Here Comes the Sign: The Semiotics of Popular Music4481078UNINA
