課程概述

◆NOTE◆ SEMINAR STARTS AT 12:20PM ON 9/13 (1ST WEEK). THERE IS NO CLASS ON 9/20 (2ND WEEK). THE REST OF THE SCHEDULE SHOULD BE AS WRITTEN ABOVE.

This graduate seminar reviews current theories and issues in the anthropological and ethnographical study of sound and music. The ethnographic method has long been an integrated part of ethnomusicology, which constitutes a major subdiscipline of musicological research. More recently, it has quite actively been employed as a source of new insights into a wide range of researches, from historical music research integrating the written and the oral, to popular music studies associated with media and cultural studies, to ‘netnographies’ or ethnographic analysis engaging online musical formations and transformations. The course is intended to understand how diverse and fruitful the anthropological study of sound and music could be as it draws on forms of ethnography, which is one of the most engaging approaches to its objects, or rather subjects, of study. 

課程目標
The aim of this seminar is as follows; with regard to students in musicology, to introduce anthropological theories and issues that are considered significant and relevant to current music research; to familiarize them with how to carry out fieldwork in sound; to motivate them to reflect upon the advantages and limitations of the ethnographic method in studying sounds and music; with regard to students in anthropology and other social sciences on the other, to open up their ‘ears’ to sound studies that has gradually taken shape as a crucial interdisciplinary field of study engaging various social and cultural dimensions of sounds; motivate them to think over the merits and needs of having the ‘ethnographic ear’ for conducting social research which is often biased toward visuality. 
課程要求
Language Proficiency:
The seminar is conducted in English. Readings and discussions are mostly in English. And yet, since the increasing number of noticeable studies have been carried out by scholars working in different languages in East Asia, students will be required to tackle some readings in Japanese and others. With the help of summary notes made by students in charge (see below) and the instructor’s support, they are expected to try hard to understand the main discussions of those foreign texts for participating in class discussion.

Assignments:
1. Critical Summary Notes: Every week two students are responsible for preparing summary notes of two required readings with additional information and critical comments in their own words, and for giving a short presentation to lead class discussion. Presentation materials such as a ppt file should be sent to the instructor and the teaching assistant (TA) no later than one day before each class. An effective and creative use of audio-visual materials highly recommended and evaluated.
2. Final Presentation/Term Paper: All students give a final oral presentation in English at the end of the semester regarding any topics relevant to this course and based on a short fieldwork, and develop it into a 5 - 10-page English term paper to be submitted due by 6/●. They will talk with the instructor to clarify a research topic beforehand. A consulting schedule to be announced around the midterm period.
