Sonic Ruins of Modernity delves into the intricate interplay of social, cultural, and cognitive phenomena in the creation and dissemination of folk songs beyond their historical context. Through the lens of Judeo-Spanish (or Ladino) folksongs, the author presents a methodology for understanding how individual memories, artistic endeavors, political and media policies, and other factors combine to shape the concept of "tradition" over the past century. Through a series of compelling case studies, the author explores how folk songs can be conceived, performed, and circulated in the post-tradition era, treating each song as a "sonic ruin," an imagined place. Moreover, the book offers a distinctive perspective on the rich history of Judeo-Spanish folksongs, shedding light on their enduring significance and relevance in contemporary society.
