The volume investigates the generation of spaces by sounds in the middle ages in a systematical way. It uses the conception of modern Sound studies and puts it into perspective for an era which was still lacking techniques of measuring or even reproducing sound. Medieval sounds can only be recognized in their lingual (and very scarce figurative) wrapping; sounds became text. These wrappings hint to the functional, emotional, and regulatory attitudes of the contemporary listener. Thus, words inform us about the meaning of sounds in their variable social and cultural settings. For example, the ringing of a bell was initially a mere tone, but it worked as an request or an order too, and it tagged the geographical and social sphere in which this ringing caused action and effect. In short, this volume broadens the idea of symbolic communication which is prominent for using signs and gesture, by adding sounds as a feature of nonverbal interaction.In this item principal approaches give structure to a multiperspective survey of the topic, particularly (a) sounds of different living environments, goups and cultures, (b) regulation of sounds and (c) generating and structuring of spaces by and with sounds. Methodological questions concerning cultures of hearing and imagination in the Middle Ages, about the ways of wrapping sounds in words and pictures and about semantics of these lingual constructions lay the ground for these considrations.Contents: Karl Kügle (History of music, Oxford) presents medieval thoughts on hearing and its order, while Mirko Breitenstein (Dresden) explores the cloister as a spot of silence and alternatie draft of a soundscape. Björn Renko Tammen (Art history, Vienna) hints to the sphere of iconology of music. Jean Marie Fritz (German studies, Dijon) explains the sound wrapping in vernacular literatures, while Harald Müller (Aachen) focuses on epistemological aspects of this wrapping. Pierre Monnet (Paris/Frankfurt a.M.) scetches an sophisticated panorama of the medieval city as a soundscape with its single subdivions, and Hiram Kümper (Mannheim) develops acoustics of german legal history. Nonverbal communication and performance are combined in the papers of Martina Giese (Würzburg) on medieval chase as well as in Michael Grünbart‘s (Byzantine studies, Münster) on the emperor’s court in Constantinople. Specific jewish, muslim and christian heraring cultures are the subject of a comparative study of Alexandra Cuffel (Jewish religion) and, with special regard to the Iberian peninsula, of Nikolas Jaspert (Heidelberg).Marin Clauss (Chemnitz) underlines in his impressive conclusion that the book ist not a mere collection of single observations. It is a broad survey of medieval soundscapes with interdisciplinary and international importance, whose outstanding quality derives from a coordinated interdisciplinary perspective and a sensitive use of the methodological framesetting.

本卷系统地考察了中世纪声音对空间的生成。它使用了现代声音研究的概念，并将其置于一个仍然缺乏测量甚至再现声音技术的时代。中世纪的声音只能在它们的语言（和非常罕见的比喻）包装中识别;声音变成了文本。这些包装暗示了当代听众的功能，情感和调节态度。因此，词语告诉我们声音在其多变的社会和文化背景中的意义。例如，敲钟最初只是一种音调，但它也是一种请求或命令，它标记了敲钟引起行动和效果的地理和社会领域。简而言之，这本书通过增加声音作为非语言互动的一个特征，拓宽了符号交流的概念，符号交流在使用符号和手势方面很突出。在这一项目中，主要方法为该主题的多视角调查提供了结构，特别是（a）不同生活环境，群体和文化的声音，（B）声音的调节和（c）通过声音和声音产生和构建空间。关于中世纪听觉和想象力文化的方法论问题，关于在文字和图片中包装声音的方法，以及关于这些语言结构的语义，为这些思考奠定了基础。目录：卡尔·屈格尔（音乐史，牛津）提出了中世纪的思想听觉和秩序，而米尔科·布雷齐（德累斯顿）则将修道院作为一个安静的地方和一个声音景观的替代草案。Björn Renko Tammen（艺术史，维也纳）暗示了音乐图像学的领域。让·玛丽·弗里茨（德语研究，第戎）解释了方言文学中的声音包装，而哈拉尔德·穆勒（亚琛）则专注于这种包装的认识论方面。Pierre Monnet（巴黎/法兰克福上午）作为一个单一的细分声景，希拉姆Kümper（曼海姆）发展了德国法律的历史声学。非语言交流和表演结合在Martina Giese（维尔茨堡）关于中世纪追逐的论文中，以及Michael Grünbart（拜占庭研究，明斯特）关于君士坦丁堡皇帝宫廷的论文中。具体的犹太人，穆斯林和基督教heraring文化的主题是一个比较研究的亚历山德拉cuestra（犹太宗教）和，特别是关于伊比利亚半岛，尼古拉斯Jaspert（海德堡）。马林克劳斯（切姆尼茨）强调，在他令人印象深刻的结论，这本书ist不是一个单纯的收集单一的意见。它是对具有跨学科和国际重要性的中世纪音景的广泛调查，其出色的质量来自协调的跨学科视角和对方法框架的敏感使用。
