Description

Explore the connection between musical meaning and human subjectivity in The Acoustic Self in English Modernism and Beyond. Published by Routledge, this academic work develops the concept of the acoustic self to examine how musical structure and characterization relate to subject-representation in the modernist English novel. The text uses three specific musical topics - the fugue, absolute music, and Gesamtkunstwerk - to examine how these modes address complex questions of identity and selfhood. Readers will find detailed reflections on the manifestations of the acoustic self through the literary works of E.M. Forster and Aldous Huxley. This volume provides a deep look into how writing can be musical and how music shapes our understanding of the self in modern literature.
