Johnny Cash and his lyricsManica Doberšek, 2009, diplomsko delo
Opis: The music and lyrics that Johnny Cash either signed his name to or lent his beautiful baritone voice have a special place in American, as well as in the world's music. The main purpose of the diploma is above all to critically analyse the lyrics of the songs that described his and many other's lives. Cash's own experiences, tragic personal stories, relationships between the sexes, minority problems, God, and awareness of transience of life are the most frequent themes that he devoted most of his attention to. The more sad and dramatic the story is, the more attractively Cash wraps it within humor. The survey of only a fragment of his rich collection reveals a man with an incomparable sense of opposites, which reflects in his life as in the stories of his characters. Criminals and Native Americans, who were in the American history highly despised, were most frequently celebrated in the songs. Johnny Cash is one of the rare musicians whose music is listened to by his coevals to generations just to be born, presidents and convicts.
