The first edition of "The Auditory Culture Reader "offered an
introduction to both classical and recent work on auditory culture,
laying the foundations for new academic research in sound studies.
Today, interest and research on sound thrives across disciplines
such as music, anthropology, geography, sociology and cultural
studies as well as within the new interdisciplinary sphere of sound
studies itself. This second edition reflects on the changes to the
field since the first edition and offers a vast amount of new
content, a user-friendly organization which highlights key themes
and concepts, and a methodologies section which addresses practical
questions for students setting out on auditory explorations. All
essays are accessible to non-experts and encompass scholarship from
leading figures in the field, discussing issues relating to sound
and listening from the broadest set of interdisciplinary
perspectives. Inspiring students and researchers attentive to sound
in their work, newly-commissioned and classical excerpts bring
urban research and ethnography alive with sensory case studies that
open up a world beyond the visual. This book is core reading for
all courses that cover the role of sound in culture, within sound
studies, anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, history, media
studies and urban geography.
