초록
The purpose of this paper is to find the possibility of songs as an ecological text for the enhancement of ecocentric consciousness. Ballads, sung by bards and minstrels in ancient times and folk singers now, have provided folks with means of communications and open places in which everything including nature merges harmoniously into one without any hierarchies in community or positions on earth. Pete Seeger, praised as ‘the tuning fork of American folk song,’ has faithfully followed the ways of ancient bards and minstrels. Aware of the power of song, he knows his songs can be an catalyst for people to feel keenly about environmental crisis and persuade them into acting against it. In many of his songs, he dreams of symbiotic relationships between every creature on earth and wants to keep earth clean for the future generations, “tomorrow’s children.”Pete Seeger’s worldwide hits such as “Where Have All the Flowers Gone” and “Turn, Turn, Turn” have been translated in more than twenty countries and sung by many famous singers and ordinary people all over the world. Considering the qualification for the ecological text which makes people perceive the imminent environmental crisis and result in their active actions, the far-reaching influences along with his life itself devoted into environmental movement proves Pete Seeger’s songs to be an excellent ecological text.
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to find the possibility of songs as an ecological text for the enhancement of ecocentric consciousness. Ballads, sung by bards and minstrels in ancient times and folk singers now, have provided folks with means of communications and open places in which everything including nature merges harmoniously into one without any hierarchies in community or positions on earth. Pete Seeger, praised as ‘the tuning fork of American folk song,’ has faithfully followed the ways of ancient bards and minstrels. Aware of the power of song, he knows his songs can be an catalyst for people to feel keenly about environmental crisis and persuade them into acting against it. In many of his songs, he dreams of symbiotic relationships between every creature on earth and wants to keep earth clean for the future generations, “tomorrow’s children.”Pete Seeger’s worldwide hits such as “Where Have All the Flowers Gone” and “Turn, Turn, Turn” have been translated in more than twenty countries and sung by many famous singers and ordinary people all over the world. Considering the qualification for the ecological text which makes people perceive the imminent environmental crisis and result in their active actions, the far-reaching influences along with his life itself devoted into environmental movement proves Pete Seeger’s songs to be an excellent ecological text.
