Reviews

'What does the medieval refrain do in Latin song?, asks Mary Channen Caldwell at the opening of her engaging new study. A very great deal, as it turns out. Throughout Divine Refrains, she argues for refrains as carrying multivalent musical and cultural meanings, beautifully demonstrating their often overlapping devotional, temporal, structural, and performative implications.' Rachel May Golden, University of Tennessee
