Description

Explore the connection between sound and early modern culture in The Sound of Shakespeare. Published by Routledge, this study examines how Shakespeare's work is informed by the various attitudes, beliefs, and practices regarding sound and hearing during his era. Author Wes Folkerth presents listening as a critical practice to help readers understand how Shakespeare's plays express an awareness of the associations between sound and specific ethical or aesthetic experiences. This book provides a deep look into the acoustic representation of subjectivity and the concept of the 'public ear' within his most famous works. This text is an essential resource for those studying theatre, stagecraft, and the historical context of early modern drama. By looking at the auditory elements of the plays, readers gain a new perspective on how sound functions as a tool for character development and cultural expression in Shakespearean literature.
