Situated Listening: Partial Perspectives and Critical Listening Positionality

Critical listening positionality, as theorized by sound studies scholar, Dylan Robinson, points to the way in which our identities and histories shape what and how we hear. In his 2020 publication, “Hungry Listening,” Robinson remarks of Deep Listening, the practice of sonic attunement developed by composer Pauline Oliveros: “in my experience the meditative opening up of listening through the body has also seemed to distance me from the particularity of listening positionality.” In this paper, we explore the tensions between this “opening up of listening through the body” and the prospect of critical listening positionality. Thinking alongside Robinson, Oliveros, and decolonial scholars such as Rolando Vasquez, we propose frameworks for situated listening that acknowledge the partial perspective of our own listening, while allowing for the porous and transformative experience of attunement to the many presences within, and histories of, the places and times we are embedded in

Murder in Jerba : honour, shame and hospitality among Maltese in Ottoman Tunisia

Little is known about the sizeable Maltese communities developing along the southern and eastern shores of the Mediterranean in the mid-nineteenth century and the extent to which the migrants reproduced Maltese cultural traditions and practices overseas. This article considers this question through a microhistorical analysis of events culminating in the murder of a Maltese woman in the Ottoman Regency of Tunis in 1866. A close reading of transcripts from the interrogation of witnesses and the accused, all members of a Maltese community in Jerba reveals their shared cultural practices and beliefs surrounding the provision of hospitality, honour and shame. Viewed from this perspective, the curious responses of the witnesses to the murder of their compatriot become meaningful, and the crime is reframed as an honour killing.peer-reviewe
