20.500.12556/DKUM-15177 Rebellion, Politics and other Themes in Modern Poetry; A Study of Band Muse Lyrics ENGLAND UNDER THE RULE OF THE HOUSE OF PLANTAGENET V diplomski nalogi sem analizirala 11 pesmi, ki jih je napisala in izvedla britanska glasbena skupina Muse. Želela sem ugotoviti, kaj loči ta besedila od ostalih besedil v popularni glasbi in kaj pritegne številne oboževalce. Za začetek sem žanr besedil vključila med običajne žanre literature. Potem sem začela z analizo posameznih pesmi, kjer sem se posvetila predvsem pomenu, pa tudi zgradbi. Ena od glavnih tem teh pesmi je uporništvo proti avtoriteti, naj bo to vlada, politik ali religija. Analiza je pokazala, da so teme besedil tisto, kar loči ta besedila od ostalih popularnih besedil. Ena od glavnih tem je tudi pomembnost resnice, iskanje resnice in njeno razkritje. Strah, da so naše misli nadzorovane, se najde v mnogih besedilih. Po avtorjevem mnenju so vse te tri glavne teme povezane; vlad skriva resnico in vpliva na naše mišljenje, zato da se je ne bi razkrilo. Druge teme so še uničenje in opustošenje vojne, hipokrizija religije, nepravičnost današnjega sveta in ideja, da se zgodovina ponavlja. Iskala sem tudi motive in aluzije. Vidimo lahko, da je na avtorja vplivalo delo Georga Orwella 1984, ki je prispevalo teme za nekatere od pesmi. Resne politične teme in uporništvo so glavne značilnosti analiziranih besedil. Teme, ki niso običajne v današnji popularni glasbi, so verjetno razlog za veliko število oboževalcev skupine Muse. In my diploma I analyzed 11 songs written and performed by British band Muse. I wanted to find out what separates these lyrics form other popular lyrics and what appeals to the numbers of fans. I started by fitting the genre of lyrics into conventional literary genres. Then I analyzed individual songs, focusing primarily on meaning, but also on the structure. The analysis revealed that the theme of the songs is the essential part that separates these lyrics from other popular lyrics. One of the major themes in these songs is rebellion against authority, whether government, politicians or religion. Another important theme is the importance of truth, the search for the truth and its revelation. The fear that our minds are being controlled is also present in many of the lyrics. All three major themes are connected: according to the author, the government is hiding the truth and protecting it by influencing our thinking. Other themes are the destruction and devastation of war, the hypocrisy of religion, the injustice of today’s world and the idea of history repeating itself. I also searched for the motifs and allusions. The author was influenced by George Orwell’s 1984, which contributed the themes of some of the songs. Serious political and rebellious themes are the main characteristic of these lyrics. Themes that are not usual in today’s popular music are most likely why the band Muse has so many fans. besedila poezija Muse teme uporništvo lyrics poetry Muse themes rebellion true true false [V.
