ZWISCHEN EMANZIPATION UND ROMANTIK. BALLADEN IM REPERTOIRE VON FRAUEN AUS DER DEUTSCHEN FOLK-SZENE
BETWEEN EMANCIPATION AND ROMANTICISM. BALLADS IN THE REPERTORY OF WOMEN ACTIVE IN THE GERMAN FOLK-REVIVAL

Summary/Abstract: My paper deals with some aspects of the Folk-Revival in Germany in the nineteen seventies. Jürgen Dittmar and David Engle said something concerning ballad singing in the German folk-scene of that time during the meeting in Edinburgh. I wanted to take a closer look at the role of women in some of the groups active in the folk-revival (Elster Silberflug, Fiedel Michel, Folkländer, Holzrädchen, Tonschusser, Wacholder,). I tried to show who made the decision concerning the repertories and which topics were preferred by women.
