The Department of Classics congratulates Professor Stathis Gourgouris who was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship for 2023. During the Fellowship year, Prof. Gourgouris will pursue a new research project, "On Listening: Acoustics, Acousmatics, Noise/Music, and the Worldly Encounter". The project will engage both the Pythagorean and later Enlightenment views on listening as a human sense in the contemporary context of technologies of sound and the social construction of aural aesthetics.
