Aesthetic Amalgams and Political Pursuits: Intertextuality in Music Videos offers a wonderfully varied series of studies showing us how music videos borrow, reshuffle, and reinvent elements from the surrounding culture. While other treatments of intertextuality in music video too often reduce it to simple source-spotting, this volume theorizes the notion in rigorous ways which draw on some of the most advanced work in textual theory. From canonical artists like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift through midwestern emo bands and Norwegian eco-feminists, the articles collected here show artists using music video to reanimate art-historical traditions, key moments of cinematic history, and collective rhetorics of political struggle. This book marks a significant advance in the study of music and audiovisual media.
