From the chanson française to the canzone d'autore in the 1960s and 1970s: Authenticity, Authority, Influence

By Rachel Haworth

Book Overview

The similarities between the chanson fran aise and the canzone d'autore have been often noted but never fully explored. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, encompassing textual analysis of song lyrics, cultural history and popular music studies, Rachel Haworth considers the different ways in which French and Italian song is thought about, written about and constructed.
