Society, Culture and the Auditory Imagination in Modern France: The Humanity of Hearing

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 ian 2015

The author argues that of all the senses hearing offered the greatest resources for remodelling the idea of the universal human condition within the modern French historical setting.
