Since the 1990s, the humanities and social sciences have developed a great interest in acoustic and auditory phenomena, with the aim of denaturalising the perception of sound, by proving that sound, like all the senses, is an integral part of our social and cultural constructs and that its use is often far from trivial. While the importance of the senses and sound in understanding the complexity of historical phenomena no longer needs to be demonstrated, the subject remains a challenge that has only partially been met.
Nelly Valsangiacomo is a professor at the Faculty of Arts, UNIL, in the History Section - Centre for Cultural History.
