Synopsis

Sacred Music explores the profound connection between music and religious practices worldwide. It illustrates how music acts as more than just an accompaniment, actively shaping religious experiences and beliefs, from ancient chants to modern hymns. The book examines how specific musical forms enhance prayer, meditation, and communal worship, while also fostering feelings of transcendence and connection to the divine.

 
The book progresses by first introducing sacred music's fundamental concepts and cultural contexts. It then examines vocal traditions like chants and hymns, followed by instrumental music's role in religious rituals, and culminates with the challenges facing sacred music today.

 
Understanding the historical and social contexts is crucial, and the book provides background on major world religions and their unique musical expressions. Through historical texts, ethnographic studies, and musical analyses, Sacred Music reveals how music reinforces religious identity and promotes social cohesion.

 
Approaching sacred music as a dynamic cultural practice offers a unique perspective, valuable to students of music, religion, and anyone interested in the spiritual dimensions of music.

    The Victorians thought, wrote and preached much more about heaven than we do today. As the subject of death comes out of the closet after 120 years when it has been largely shunned and avoided, this book presents the views on the afterlife of a number of well-known Victorians, and others not so well known, in the belief that they may help us today as we seek to get over our fear of death and what lies beyond it and to rescue ourselves from its privatization and over-medicalization.

    Loretta Lynn is a living legend. From walking around barefoot in clothing repurposed from flour sacks in rural Kentucky to becoming an icon with more awards than any other woman in country music, many may wonder just how Loretta Lynn paved this path for herself. While hard work, natural talent, and having certain people in her life surely contributed to her success, her story is so unique it seems as if it was written by fate.  
    A mother of six and now a grandmother to dozens, Lynn never lost sight of her values or what drove her. She had a calling to relay what was real and a desire to create a secure life for her family. She believes in horoscopes and is proudly an Aries; with her ambition and gifts, she could not be stopped. While Lynn is hesitant to call herself a feminist, her bravery and perseverance opened doors for many more women in country music. She also challenged stereotypes associated with the genre through living her beliefs about tolerance, honesty, and fairness. 
    This biography will explore the meaning and process behind some of her music and how the people and circumstances that shaped her led to her extensive list of awards and accolades. It will also seek to provide insight into how her world view, natural gifts, and personality traits drove her successes.
