29.07.2025
The second volume in the JMU Cultural Studies series has just been published by Würzburg University Press (WUP).
Edited by Maria Denzlein and Sophie Schönfeld Listening in: Perspective on Sound, Voice, and (Popular) Music Studies features the work of thirteen emerging scholars who analytically ‘listen in’ on practices centred on sound, voice, and/or popular music. Case studies range from early modern composition and cathedral soundscapes to resonance theory, hardcore punk and K-Pop.
