Wittkower.This is the first scholarly work to examine the cultural significance of the ""talking book"" since the invention of the phonograph in 1877, the earliest machine to enable the reproduction of the human voice. Recent advances in sound technology make this an opportune moment to reflect on the evolution of our reading practices since this remarkable invention. Some questions addressed by the collection include: How does auditory literature adapt printed texts? What skills in close listening are necessary for its reception? What are the social consequences of new listening technologies?Routledge research in cultural and media studies ;31.Literature and technologyHistoryMass media and literatureHistoryAudiobooksSound in literatureLiteratureAppreciationBooks and readingHistory20th centuryElectronic books.Literature and technologyHistory.Mass media and literatureHistory.Audiobooks.Sound in literature.LiteratureAppreciation.Books and readingHistory302.23Rubery MatthewMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910460976203321Audiobooks, literature, and sound studies1984192UNINA
