The Cowboy and the Dandy: Crossing Over from Romanticism to Rock and Roll
Meisel, Perry (Professor of English, Professor of English, New York University)
What is rock and roll and where does it come from? In this study of music, literature and culture, Perry Meisel shows how rock and roll joins both Romanticism and the blues tradition by testing the boundaries they share including those between freedom and irony, country and city, cowboy and dandy.
