The digital turn has created new opportunities for scholars across disciplines to use sound in their scholarship. This volume’s contributors provide a blueprint for making sound central to research, teaching, and dissemination. They show how digital sound studies has the potential to transform silent, text-centric cultures of communication in the humanities into rich, multisensory experiences that are more inclusive of diverse knowledges and abilities. Drawing on multiple disciplines—including rhetoric and composition, performance studies, anthropology, history, and information science—the contributors to Digital Sound Studies bring digital humanities and sound studies into productive conversation while probing the assumptions behind the use of digital tools and technologies in academic life. In so doing, they explore how sonic experience might transform our scholarly networks, writing processes, research methodologies, pedagogies, and knowledges of the archive. As they demonstrate, incorporating sound into scholarship is thus not only feasible but urgently necessary. Contributors. Myron M. Beasley, Regina N.

The Melancholy Of Race written by Anne Anlin Cheng and has been published by Oxford University Press, USA this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2001 with Literary Criticism categories.


Cheng proposes that racial identification is itself already a melancholic act--a social category that is imaginatively supported through a dynamic of loss and compensation, by which the racial other is at once rejected and retained. Using psychoanalytic theories on mourning and melancholia as inroads into her subject, Cheng offers a closely observed and carefully reasoned account of the minority experience as expressed in works of art by, and about, Asian-Americans and African-Americans. She argues that the racial minority and dominant American culture both suffer from racial melancholia and that this insight is crucial to a productive reimagining of progressive politics.

This unique reference book offers a holistic description of the multifaceted field of systematic musicology, which is the study of music, its production and perception, and its cultural, historical and philosophical background. The seven sections reflect the main topics in this interdisciplinary subject. The first two parts discuss musical acoustics and signal processing, comprehensively describing the mathematical and physical fundamentals of musical sound generation and propagation. The complex interplay of physiology and psychology involved in sound and music perception is covered in the following sections, with a particular focus on psychoacoustics and the recently evolved research on embodied music cognition. In addition, a huge variety of technical applications for professional training, music composition and consumer electronics are presented. A section on music ethnology completes this comprehensive handbook. Music theory and philosophy of music are imbedded throughout. Carefully edited and written by internationally respected experts, it is an invaluable reference resource for professionals and graduate students alike.

Le Nouveau Dictionnaire est un ouvrage complètement différent du Grand Dictionnaire français-auvergnat publié en 1978-1980 et désormais épuisé. La matière contenue constitue un vaste corpus de 780 pages denses et claires de plus de 40 000 entrées françaises et de plus de 200 000 mots et expressions en auvergnat. Par leur fraîcheur et leur pittoresque, les expressions dessinent un portrait saisissant de l'esprit auvergnat, des mentalités et de la collaboration culturelle des diverses contrées de l'Auvergne. Toutes les parties du territoire linguistique de l'Auvergnat sont représentées largement : Basse-Auvergne, Velay, Bourbonnais méridional, Cantal Nord. Tous les domaines de la langue sont traités, y compris l'argot. Un effort particulier a été fait sur les expressions et tournures : toutes celles qui sont usuelles en français, des plus cultivées aux plus familières, voire aux plus grossières ont été rendues et ces traductions montrent de façon éclatante l'originalité de l'auvergnat et son autonomie mentale et lexicale complète par rapport au français et à toute autre langue de France. Une magnifique carte en couleur l'illustre. EXTRAIT Introduction J'ai toujours été hanté par la parole d'une patoisante intelligente de Griniac en Brivadois : « Je n'aime pas parler patois parce que ça me limite dans ce que je voudrais dire. » Laissée en friche par l'inaboutissement de tentatives antérieures (celle de nos écrivains du XVIIème s. qui voulurent traiter de doctrine religieuse en auvergnat, celle de Tailhandier qui entreprit de démontrer la primauté limagnaise au XVIIIème s., celle de C.A. Ravel qui rêva au XIXème d'un « avernat » littéraire au-dessus de la vérité infinie des fragmentations locales, voire celle du montluçonnais L. Péroux-Beaulaton qui s'essaya non sans mérite à l'expression littéraire ambitieuse au début du XXème), affaiblie par le recul au fond de campagnes arriérées, réfugiée dans des cellules très étroites (le petit village, la famille, voire une partie seulement de celle-ci), pratiquée de plus en plus sporadiquement et brièvement par ceux-là même qui la parlent encore, notre langue se défait avant de mourir.

It was a weird case. All the clues pointed to the dead ghost as the culprit. No one knew that it was to confuse the crowd. Using a gas poisoning case as a medium, there were two people killed. One was a female police officer who was in charge of the records room at the police station, while the other was a long dead criminal. The condemned man had died before moving into the apartment, and it was terrible how the signs had led him to turn on the gas, a dead man, and to the death of the policewoman. The story slowly became complicated and confusing ...

In Intoxicating Shanghai, Paul Bevan explores the work of a number of Chinese modernist figures in the fields of literature and the visual arts, with an emphasis on the literary group the New-sensationists and its equivalents in the Shanghai art world, examining the work of these figures as it appeared in pictorial magazines. It undertakes a detailed examination into the significance of the pictorial magazine as a medium for the dissemination of literature and art during the 1930s. The research locates the work of these artists and writers within the context of wider literary and art production in Shanghai, focusing on art, literature, cinema, music, and dance hall culture, with a specific emphasis on 1934 – ‘The Year of the Magazine’.
