SYNOPSIS
History is filled with unacceptable noises: high pitch, gossip, talkativeness, hysteria, wailing and ritual shouts. Who makes them? Those deviant from or deficient in the masculine ideal of self-control: women, catamites, eunuchs and androgynes fall into this category. From the myths of antiquity to Margaret Thatcher via Sigmund Freud and Gertrude Stein, The Gender of Sound charts the gendering of voice through Western culture.
This enquiry into the way we hear sounds invites reimagining our conceptions of human order, virtue and selfhood. Putting a door on the female mouth has been an important project of patriarchal culture from antiquity to the present day. Its chief tactic is an ideological association of female sound with monstrosity, disorder and death.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Anne Carson
Anne Carson (21 de junho de 1950) é uma poeta, ensaísta, tradutora e professora de clássicos canadiana. Carson viveu em Montreal vários anos e lecionou na Universidade McGill, na Universidade de Michigan e na Universidade de Princeton, de 1980 a 1987. Foi bolsista do Guggenheim em 1998 e, em 2000, recebeu uma bolsa da MacArthur. Também ganhou um prémio literário Lannan.Em 1986, Carson publicou o seu primeiro livro, Eros the Bittersweet. Nomeado um dos 100 melhores livros de não-ficção de todos os tempos pela Biblioteca Moderna, o livro traça o conceito de "eros" na Grécia antiga através das suas representações na poesia da época. Carson considera seriamente como os desejos triangulares e miméticos foram representados na poesia de Safo, bem como a relação de Eros com a solidão. Famosamente, Carson analisa o Fragmento 31 de Safo como representando "eros como adiado, desafiado, obstruído, com fome, organizado em torno de uma ausência radiante - para representar eros como falta".
