Time magazine made Bob Marley's impact strikingly clear when it named
Exodus the most important album of the 20th century. Throughout his
life and perhaps even more since his death in 1981 at the age of 36,
Marley's music has demonstrated a unique ability to combine with almost
any cultural setting, no matter how different the elements might at
first appear. Through his adaptable, yet enduring musical messages, he
represents an especially articulate type of singer-songwriter. Marley
released a large quantity of introspective, autobiographical material
at the height of his success and it is thus only in a work such as
this--in which the artist is investigated through his recorded
output--that one can understand who this great man truly was and what
he hoped to achieve through his life and music. The Words and Music of
Bob Marley investigates Marley's creative output chronologically and
provides complementary biographical information where it is relevant
and helpful. Themes discussed throughout the book include protest,
revolution, love, hate, biblical concepts, and Rastafari culture.
Three readings per chapter explore the same hot topic from different points of view. The readings in each chapter vary by genre and increase in difficulty to support reading development. A focus on reading skills and reading comprehension through pre-reading questions, skimming and scanning activities, the use of context clues, vocabulary analysis, and the development of critical thinking skills helps students increase their reading fluency. Open-ended questions at the end of every chapter
