Philosophers for millennia have tried to silence the physical
musicality of voice in favor of the purity of ideas without matter,
souls without bodies. Nevertheless, voices resonate among bodies,
among texts, and across denotation and sound; they are singular, as
unique as fingerprints, but irreducibly collective too. They are
material, somatic, and musical. But voices are also meaningful-they
give body to concepts that cannot exist in abstractions, essential
to sense yet in excess of it. They can be neither reduced to
neurology nor silenced in abstraction. They complicate the logos of
the beginning and emphasize the enfleshing of all words. Through
explorations of theology and philosophy, pedagogy, translation, and
semiotics, all interwoven with song, The Matter of Voice works
toward reintegrating our thinking about both speaking and authorial
voice as fleshy combinings of meaning and music.
