Cooley\u003c\/b\u003e (Editor)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEthnomusicological fieldwork has significantly changed since the end of the the 20th century. Ethnomusicology is in a critical moment that requires new perspecitves on fieldwork - perspectives that are not addressed in the standard guides to ethnomusicological or anthropological method. The focus in ethnomusicological writing and teaching has traditionally centered around analyses and ethnographic representations of musical cultures, rather than on the personal world of understanding, experience, knowing, and doing fieldwork. \u003cem\u003eShadows in the Field\u003c\/em\u003e deliberately shifts the focus of ethnomusicology and of ethnography in general from representation (text) to experience (fieldwork). The \"new fieldwork\" moves beyond mere data collection and has become a defining characteristic of ethnomusicology that engages the scholar in meaningful human contexts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this new edition of \u003cem\u003eShadows in the Field, \u003c\/em\u003e renowned ethnomusicologists explore the roles they themselves act out while performing fieldwork and pose significant questions for the field: What are the new directions in ethnomusicological fieldwork? Where does fieldwork of \"the past\" fit into these theories? And above all, what do we see when we acknowledge the shadows we cast in the field? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe second edition of \u003cem\u003eShadows in the Field\u003c\/em\u003e includes updates of all existing chapters, a new preface by Bruno Nettl, and seven new chapters addressing critical issues and concerns that have become increasingly relevant since the first edition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTimothy J.
