Reframing Sonic Landscape: music, nature, and politics in the United States of America

在美国这类术语的复杂历史中，我们如何理解音乐与自然和自然世界的关系和表现？生态音乐学是研究音乐学和生态学相结合的一个子领域，生态音乐学的许多基础文献都集中在十九世纪末二十世纪初欧洲作曲家的典范语料库上。虽然这些文本揭示了这种相互交织的音乐在民族化(和民族主义)文化运动发展中的作用的重要性，但它们的历史位置并没有提供一个在当代背景下参与生态的背景。还迫切需要将生态音乐学术与环境人文科学中的其他子领域进行对话，这些子领域挑战美利坚合众国对“自然”的单一观点--给黑人个人和社区划上红线的历史，或者欧洲定居者从美洲原住民部落大规模窃取土地的历史，如何重新构建一个在美国白人的想象中经常被解释为上帝的并受到基督教神学严重影响的文化概念？

How do we understand music's relationship with and representations of nature and the natural world in the United States of America's complex history of sucah terms? Much of the foundational literature of ecomusicology - a subfield studying a conjoining of musicology with ecology - has focused on a canonised corpus of late-nineteenth and early-twentieth European composers. Whilst these texts have revealed the importance of this intertwining to music's role within the development of nationalised (and nationalistic) cultural movements, their historical location has not presented a setting to engage with ecology in a contemporary context. There is also a pressing need to bring ecomusicological scholarship into conversation with other subfields in the environmental humanities which challenge the idea of a singular perspective of "nature" in the United States of America - how do the histories of redlining Black individuals and communities, or of the extensive theft of land from Native American tribes by European settlers, reframe a cultural concept that has often been construed in the White American imagination as providential and heavily influenced by Christian theology?
