Explores silence in its philological dimensions: as a vehicle of meaning, a narrative device and a medium for expressing or concealing emotion.





This book explores how silence occurs across languages, literatures and cultures, fulfilling a wide range of communicative functions. It examines how silence can be collective or individual, intentional or unintentional, conveying meanings that extend beyond words and shaping interaction, perception and expression.





The volume investigates the multifaceted nature of silence from literary, semiotic and cultural perspectives, weaving together analyses that reveal its complexity across different media and contexts. The chapters address silences both within and beyond interaction, including interaction-like contexts, encompassing such diverse phenomena as animal silence, the silence of trauma and the iconic phase of silence.





Taken together, the contributions provide a comprehensive and multidimensional understanding of silence in auditory and visual forms of expression, and across varied linguistic and cultural contexts.

Arvustused

This exquisite book uncovers an enigmatic eloquence of silence among languages, cultures, media and art forms. Interweaving literature, linguistics and visual culture, the volume brings together a global cast of scholars to unveil how the unspoken speaks powerfully across stories, symbols and human experience. * Dat Bao, Monash University, Australia * In this original and contemporary collection, silence shimmers both as an entry point and common denominator for the exploration of a host of fascinating communicative, cultural, and creative themes. The volume makes an important new contribution, examining the representations of silence as well as its manifestations as a form of social action across a host of literary, political, visual, and artistic genres. * Adam Jaworski, Emeritus Professor, The University of Hong Kong *
