Hearing, Sound, and the Auditory in Ancient Greece represents the
first wide-ranging philosophical study of the role of sound and
hearing in the ancient Greek world. Because our modern western
culture is a particularly visual one, we can overlook the
significance of the auditory which was so central to the Greeks.
The fifteen chapters of this edited volume explore "hearing" as
being philosophically significant across numerous texts and figures
in ancient Greek philosophy. Through close analysis of the
philosophy of such figures as Homer, Heraclitus, Pythagoreans,
Sophocles, Empedocles, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Hearing, Sound,
and Auditory in Ancient Greece presents new and unique research
from philosophers and classicists that aims to redirect us to the
ways in which sound, hearing, listening, voice, and even silence
shaped and reflected the worldview of ancient Greece.
