Jiří Fukač and His Contribution to Popular Music Research
Original language description
Jiří Fukač (1936–2002) was one of the most prominent Czech musicologists. His ability to approach topics in classical music from a complex perspective in wide artistic and societal contexts was a characteristic feature of his work. He was known as a prolific author of journal articles and scholarly studies, a skilful orator, a charismatic debater, as well as an inspiring teacher. His contribution to the field of research in popular music, being spread over a number of individual works, has not been, however, all that visible up until now. The present study maps the individual stages of Fukač’s interest in this field, analyses his contributions in the form of shorter journal articles, more extensive essay writing and scholarly research. The sources used for the investigation included published texts in journals, books, and other media, as well as publications related to Fukač’s musicological legacy published after his untimely death, including entries in encyclopaedias and the personal memories of his colleagues. The study confirms that Fukač focused a significant amount of his scholarly activities on research into popular-music culture. The highlights of his legacy are a taxonomy of music providing an option for terminological delimitation of art music and popular music, elaborated in cooperation with Ivan Poledňák, and the appeal to integral and equal incorporation of both spheres of musical culture in all the existing disciplines of musicology.
