Dreaming of Joe Hill: Folk Songs by and about the Greatest Hero of the American Labour Movement

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Joe Hill, born Joel Emmanuel Hägglund, was literally larger than life, achieving immortality through song. Born in Sweden in 1879, he immigrated to the United States and became a prominent labour activist as a member of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), also known as the Wobblies. This paper will look at some of his most well-known songs (The Preacher and the Slave, The Tramp, Casey Jones the Union Scab). There will also be a focus on songs inspired by Hill’s life and death, most famously, I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill LastNight based on the poem by Alfred Hayes and immortalized by the singer and activist Paul Robeson.
