The Groovology of White Affect. 330 $aThe Groovology of White Affect theorizes white aesthetics and race formation in South Africa from a position immersed in the sonic. Mining boeremusiek?s ?heart-speech? across two centuries of reception, the book offers a theory of race formation steeped in the music?s vernacular language and practices, and in the context of South Africa's race ideologies. The book?s chapters identifys and explore boeremusiek's affective modalities: embarrassment, blackface, epiphany, and disavowal. The book then theorizes indexicality, music, affect and whiteness as three interlinked ontologies. When considered together, the book argues, boeremusiek?s modalities outline the parameters of a corrupted white aesthetic faculty that help explain how whiteness perpetuates itself in the present day. Racism is thereby defined not primarily as a matter of prejudice, but as a matter of (conditional) pleasure and (pathological) taste. The Groovology of White Affect articulates a sound studies from the South; it is an attempt to write in a South Africa-centered way - amidst the collapse of colonial disciplines and a resulting disciplinary and methodological catholicism - for a broad, international audience interested in the affective constitution of race and racism. 606 $aPopular music 606 $aMusic$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEthnology$xAfrica 606 $aCulture 606 $aPopular Music 606 $aHistory of Music 606 $aAfrican Culture 615 0$aPopular music. 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEthnology$xAfrica. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aPopular Music. 615 24$aHistory of Music. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 676 $a781.623936 700 $aFroneman$b Willemien$01738918 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910857790603321 996 $aThe Groovology of White Affect$94161918 997 $aUNINA
