| Course Description | Musical anthropology and ethnomusicology have tentatively begun to work with "affect" as a keyword for understanding how contemporary cultures of musical circulation and listening shape publics and mobilize sentiment. But what is "affect"? How does it differ from "emotion"? How might one go about ethnographically studying affect when sound/music/aesthetics are the object of inquiry? This seminar places two contemporary interdisciplinary "turns" in the social sciences and humanities (the "acoustic turn" and the "affective turn") in productive alignment. We track genealogies of the following keywords and terms through relevant theoretical and ethnographic literatures: "listening"; "voice"; "emotion"; "structures of feeling"; "affect"; "public feeling" and "publics" while thinking through the possibilities of "affect" for anthropologies of sound and music. |
