Navigating Urban Soundscapes: Dublin and Los Angeles in Fiction
offers an innovative analytical framework to explore sound in
different media and across two distinct urban soundscapes. Studying
a wide range of novels, films, and radio dramas, using Dublin and
Los Angeles as case studies, Annika Eisenberg asks how sounds are
aestheticised to signify urban space in fiction, and how sounds
allow such fictional urban spaces to be navigated, both by
auscultators, the characters listening within a work of fiction,
and by auditeurs, the implied audience of a fictional work.
Eisenberg argues that the concept of "urban sound" is a cultural
and aesthetic construct, and in doing so, she shows why aesthetics
needs to be front and center in sound studies.
