Help for thesis of Fandangos
Hi guys! I am preparing for my elective course of literature. And I choose Fandangos and it‘s variations as my curricular thesis.
This curricular is about poems and folk songs or any other lyrics and songs. I immediately thought of Fandangos when I know the curricular thesis requirement. I want to mention Fandangos in different areas and their variations like Taranta, Malaguena and so on. But I don't where I can find academic literatures to refer.
I will appreciate if some erudite scholar can help me.

start with this
Then you can go with Guillermo Castro Buendia who has extracted papers on chapters of his massive dissertation.
There are two books I have in my collection, one on Malagueñas and the other called "cante mineros" that fill in the gaps.
just so you know, the poetry is pretty universal, 4 or 5 line verse that fits the same mathematic 6 line copla structure. What distinguishes the regions is MELODY, the specific thing that is sung, whether personal (malagueña de Mellizo, fandango de Gloria etc.,) or regional (Fandango de Lucena, Granaina, Cante de La mina etc.). We see earliest verses in Eduardo Ocón (that we know for sure is tied to the music we know), 1860s, and possible G. Borrow and earlier sources (1830s but no music corroboration) and the instrumental copla is recorded first by Felix Maximo Lopez ca. 1800.

and you want to write a thesis ?????
Not a very academic thesis. For only 3000 words in Chinese. The topic I want was used by others but I just write a thesis for curriculum not for publication
