Continuity and Control: The Dynamics of Sacred And Secular Art Of Northeast New Guinea by James R. Camp
J. Camp Associates, 1978. Paperback, quarto, illustrated. Near fine.
The traditional music of New Guinea has long fascinated us (the 6 volume series of LPs on Musicaphon and the 2 volume David Toop recordings on Quartz are beyond stunning), and this slim volume puts it in the context of the larger arts focus of the various indigenous tribes. Like the music, moving and incredibly evocative.
