Resonant Alterities : Sound, Desire, and Anxiety in Non-Realist Fiction, Paperback / softback Book

Resonant Alterities : Sound, Desire, and Anxiety in Non-Realist Fiction Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

"Resonant Alterities" bridges the gap between sound studies and literary criticism.

A queer ghost story by Vernon Lee, an occultist novel of psychic adventure by Algernon Blackwood, a dystopian science fiction tale by J.G.

Ballard and a post-traumatic short novel by Don DeLillo are its primary objects of analysis.

Each is explored within the context of its contemporary cultural debates on sound.

Meanwhile, all four theory-enriched readings focus on intersecting and desire-laden processes of meaning making, knowledge production and subject formation.

Focal points are aurally/audio-visually structured phenomena expressive of both collective and individual anxieties.
