Abstract

[Extract] This is the first monograph by music scholar Birgit Drüppel, and the tenth in the Apwitihire monograph series of the Institute of Papua New Guinea Studies, a series devoted to music research in that country. The book is introduced by editor Don Niles, who provides a comprehensive placement of Drüppel's work in the context of other research in the New Britain region. This introduction is a testament to Niles' own impressive level of scholarship, and is very informative for the reader, with nine pages of references at the end that support research enquiry across not only music but linguistics, archaeology, art, anthropology and history.
