Tiv Song Charles Keil 1979 Ethnomusicology Mantle Hood Library MLH Tiv Song by Charles Keil — 1979 University of Chicago Press — First Edition Hardcover with Original Dust Jacket — Mantle Hood Library Association A fascinating and important scholarly music book with a particularly interesting connection to the history of ethnomusicology. This is a 1979 hardcover edition of Tiv Song by Charles Keil, published by The University of Chicago Press, Chicago and London. The book examines music and artistic expression among the Tiv people of Nigeria and is an important work within ethnomusicology and the study of music, culture and society. A very special copy What makes this particular copy especially interesting is the blind embossed ownership impression found inside the book. The pressed circular impression reads: “LIBRARY OF MANTLE HOOD” with “MLH” in the centre. There is no ink involved — it is a genuine pressed/embossed impression in the paper. Mantle Hood (1918–2005) was a major figure in the development of ethnomusicology and was internationally recognised for his work in the field. The subject matter of Tiv Song makes its presence in a Mantle Hood-associated library particularly compelling. I have photographed the embossed impression clearly so that prospective collectors can examine this feature for themselves.
