The Dimension of Hearing and Cultural Construction in the History of Communication

Abstract

: With the development of media technology, the media has become more and more focused on the visual turn, even facing “visual hegemony “. Academics and industry have begun to call for a return to aural culture. In the history of communication, the auditory turn is no longer a novelty. In this article, we look at the theories and perspectives on the auditory turn in the history of communication through three aspects: the tradition of hearing culture, the classification of auditory texts, and the contemporary value of hearing culture, in the hope that it can contribute to existing research and promote a balance of the senses in an intelligent media society.
