Synopsis

The voice is one of the most fleeting things ever and yet proves to be one of the most complex phenomena. Slovenian philosopher and cultural theorist Mladen Dolar succeeds in bundling the diverse aspects of this phenomenon in a unified theory that systematically links with historical representations. This opens up a field that hardly leaves any aspect of modern theory unconsidered: linguistics, physics and metaphysics, the ethics, politics and aesthetics of the voice and, last but not least, the special voices of Freud and Kafka come to word.
