- Title
"Blanched with Fear": Reading the Racialized Soundscape in Macbeth.
- Authors
BROWN, DAVID STERLING; STOEVER, JENNIFER LYNN
- Abstract
A literary criticism of the play "Macbeth," by William Shakespeare is presented. It examines the racialized sounds of whiteness, the importance of Shakespeare's depiction of whiteness in the play for interpreting blackness, the contextualization of the play's soundscape by the social production of whiteness, and the disorder of the geographical outskirts evoked by Shakespeare via animal sounds heard by the characters.
