Dr. Martha Sprigge to present at Interdisciplinary Humanities Center's Launching New Research in the Humanities event

Martha SpriggeUCSB Music faculty member Dr. Martha Sprigge (Assistant Professor, Musicology) was named a 2018-2019 UCSB Interdisciplinary Humanities Center Faculty Fellow, making her one of only four UCSB faculty members selected for the fellowship. On Tuesday, May 21st from 4-6 pm in the McCune Conference Room (6020) of the Humanities and Social Sciences Building, the 2018-2019 IHC Faculty Fellows will discuss their works-in-progress that have been supported by the award. Dr. Sprigge will give a presentation on her current book project, Socialist Laments: Musical Mourning in the German Democratic Republic. The book demonstrates how music was used to enact the mourning process in the former German Democratic Republic (the GDR, or East Germany), where the ruling Socialist Unity Party tightly regulated expressions of loss.
