Reading through Aurality 's Afterlives
As I read through the articles in this symposium, I experienced Aurality anew, engaged with the invited authors and their work, and, in some cases, relived moments of my life as a teacher, as a scholar, or simply as a friend. This symposium is collectively constituted through analytically entangling the book in new theoretical and cross-cultural contexts, timely interventions on its theoretical presuppositions, anecdotes about classes or conversa…
The Reorganization of the Sensory World
Although anthropological and critical social theory have a long interest in sensory experience, work on the senses has intensified within the past 20 years. This article traces three sensory genealogies within anthropology: the work of Ong and McLuhan as critiqued and advanced by David Howes and the Concordia Project; phenomenological studies as advanced by Paul Stoller; and a focus on materialities as advanced by Nadia Seremetakis. Studies of in…
Soundscapes
A generation of scholars in multiple disciplines has investigated sound in ways that are productive for anthropologists.

One of the main topics explored is how these texts acquire canonic validity through the…
