Building on J. L. Austin’s speech act theory, Judith Butler has developed, since the 1990s, a theory of gender performativity. It has been widely appropriated as a critical tool to under…[Read more]

The recitation of naʻt among Mauritian Muslims is an example of how sound and sonic practices can provide somatic evidence for transoceanic links in the Indian Ocean world. It is argued…[Read more]

This analytic of atmospheres as multisensoriality partially aligns with, but also differs from other anthropological approaches to multisensoriality or the anthropology of the senses.…[Read more]

Nevertheless, analyses of the voice that do justice to all these three dimensions are rare. This also applies to linguistic anthropological work on the voice, whose main strength is investigating the interplay of…[Read more]
