"Poles, Lithuanians, Slovaks and Ukrainians emigrated to America, bringing their own customs and values, and established community life in the anthracite coal fields. Inevitably, the belief has arisen in the minds of many Americans, including historians, that these immigrants were disorganized and willing to accept the most inhuman conditions because of economic privation in eastern Europe. Professor Greene focuses attention on these stereotyped ideas of ethnicity in labour which may be a revelation to some readers. Rather than the immigrants depressing the pay scale, we read of a well-organized community willing to defend the attainment of its economic goals through unity if possible, or by force if necessary. While other mineworkers repeatedly failed in their attempt to unite into an effective union, the East European enthusiastically and forcefully kept strikes and helped finalize victory for the United Mine Workers." Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book. …

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A Singing Ambivalence undertakes a comprehensive examination of the ways in which nine immigrant groups - Irish, Germans, Scandinavians, Eastern European Jews, Italians, Poles, Hungarians, Chinese, and Mexicans - responded to their new lives in the United States through music. Each group's songs reveal an abiding concern over leaving their loved ones and homeland and an anxiety about adjusting to the new society. But accompanying these feelings was an excitement about the possibilities of becoming wealthy and about looking forward to a democratic and free society. Distinguished historian Victor Greene surveys an extensive body of songs of known and unknown origins that comment on the problems immigrants faced and reveals the wide range of responses they made to the radical changes in their new lives in America. His selection of lyrics provides useful capsules of expression that clarify the ways in which immigrants defined themselves and staked out their claims for acceptance in American society. But whatever their common and specific themes, they reveal an ambivalence over their coming to America and a pessimism about achieving their goals. A Singing Ambivalence examines the familiar sentiments of new immigrants to the United States, while at the same time conveying from an aesthetic viewpoint how immigrants expressed their hopes and difficulties through a unique medium - song. This is an important volume that will be welcomed by scholars of music and U.S. immigration history.
