What does sound, whether preserved or lost, tell us about
nineteenth-century wartime? Hearing the Crimean War: Wartime Sound
and the Unmaking of Sense pursues this question through the many
territories affected by the Crimean War, including Britain, France,
Turkey, Russia, Italy, Poland, Latvia, Dagestan, Chechnya, and
Crimea. Examining the experience of listeners and the politics of
archiving sound, it reveals the close interplay between
nineteenth-century geographies of empire and the media through
which wartime sounds became audible-or failed to do so. The volume
explores the dynamics of sound both in violent encounters on the
battlefield and in the experience of listeners far-removed from
theaters of war, each essay interrogating the Crimean War's sonic
archive in order to address a broad set of issues in musicology,
ethnomusicology, literary studies, the history of the senses and
sound studies.
