Poetry for the Ears. Poetics and Aesthetics of Sound and Acoustic Performance in Modern Literature (Conference)
Basic data for this project
Type of project: Scientific Event
Duration at the University of Münster: 08/11/2011 - 31/07/2012
Description
Although the dimensions of sound and aurality did have a strong impact on the modes of literary consumption and of aesthetic production throughout history, their significance for the history of poetics and its relation to cultural ways of listening is still widely unexplored. The international and interdisciplinary conference, which took place 2012/06/29-2012/07/01 in the Literaturhaus München, pushed theoretical and aesthetic questions in order to develop instruments for a future 'philology of the ear'. A publication will follow.
