Il arrive que les musiques actuelles puisent dans la littérature pour constituer leurs matières verbales. Certains groupes vont jusqu'à s'approprier des textes du panthéon littéraire ; ainsi les musiciens de Complot Bronswick. The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy et Einstürzende Neubauten se sont respectivement confrontés à des textes de Vladimir Maïakovski, Heiner Müller et William S. Burroughs. De tels processus d'adaptation entraînent une double "déterritorialisation" des textes puisque les mots changent à la fois de support et d’univers symbolique. De façon érosive et projective ils explorent de nouveaux lieux de communication littéraire et font vivre les textes en renouvelant leurs modes de fonctionnement et leurs publics. Loin de chercher à se substituer aux livres. Ces disques encouragent une écoute relationnelle : "distordus" par la musique. Les mots projettent alors un regard oblique sur les œuvres dont ils sont issus et nous invitent à mieux y (re)venir.

This new study looks at the relationship of rhetoric and music in the era's intellectual discourses, texts and performance cultures principally in Europe and North America. Catherine Jones begins by examining the attitudes to music and its performance by leading figures of the American Enlightenment and Revolution, notably Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson. She also looks at the attempts of Francis Hopkinson, William Billings and others to harness the Orphean power of music so that it should become a progressive force in the creation of a new society. She argues that the association of rhetoric and music that reaches back to classical Antiquity acquired new relevance and underwent new theorisation and practical application in the American Enlightenment in light of revolutionary Atlantic conditions. Jones goes on to consider changes in the relationship of rhetoric and music in the nationalising milieu of the nineteenth century; the connections of literature, music and music theory to changing models of subjectivity; and Romantic appropriations of Enlightenment visions of the public ethical function of music. Key Features * The first study devoted to literature and music in the Atlantic world *Includes detailed examination of works by canonical and lesser known eighteenth- and nineteenth-century American writers and composers *Shows the intertwining of European and American cultural forms *Integrates the history of music and the history of subjectivity
