Murrow and the proximity effect -- The screaming woman -- The museum of Jurassic radio: sonic excess in Dylan Thomas and Samuel Beckett -- Radio as music: Glenn Gould's contrapuntal sound -- All things reconsidered: the promise of NPR.This volume examines the vital interplay between acoustic techniques and modernist practices in the growth of radio. Concentrating on the period from the 1930s to the 1970s, but also speaking to the rising popularity of today's narrative broadcasts, Porter's close readings of key radio programmes show how writers adapted literary techniques to an acoustic medium with great effect. Addressing avant-garde sound poetry and experimental literature on the air, alongside industry policy and network economics, Porter identifies the ways radio challenged the conventional distinctions between highbrow and lowbrow cultural content to produce a dynamic popular culture.Forgotten art of radio storytellingStorytelling in mass mediaRadio and literatureStorytelling in mass media.Radio and literature.791.4402/8791.44028Porter Jeffrey Lyn1951-1639631MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910818554903321Lost Sound3982694UNINA
