| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The emergence of modern sound-reproduction technologies (such as the telephone, the phonograph, the gramophone, and the radio) at the end of the 19th century brought about a profound change in the sound environment. With these technologies, sound, and specifically the sound of the human voice, was released from the restriction of its “here-now” character, i.e., originality, for the first time in human history. There is no doubt that this change transformed our images of hearing and sound, and offered artists in various fields the possibility of creating new art forms.
As concrete results of this research, I revealed some traces of the images of hearing and sound, as transformed by modern sound-reproduction technologies, in the development process of Il'ja Zdanevich's poetics and in the theory of Russian Formalism, particularly in Boris Eikhenbaum’s theoretical works from 1918 to 1924.
