Power and performance in Gros Ventre war expedition songs
Résumé
This study provides a cultural analysis of power and performance in Gros Ventre war expedition songs. Symbolic content of Gros Ventre myth and ritual is elicited as a tool for analyzing particular social relationships that motivate war expeditions as action and value. Mythological and musical analysis combine in an investigation of structural and performance devices that frame song as a system of communication.
