Silent Music by Julian Wolfreys

Silent Music is a book about those small spaces - between the last note and the first applause, between saying 'hello' and falling in love, between dream and reality, between the Isle of Wight and the 'mainland', between herehome and therehome, between longing and what we long for - Silent Music is an exquisite record of love, creation, memory, g
Julian Wolfreys is Professor of English at the University of Portsmouth and a member of an Isle of Wight band called The Nightwatchmen. His research covers the nineteenth century and English modernism, with particular interests in inter- and transdisciplinary approaches, while also being informed by continental philosophy from Kant to the present day, and with a particular philosophical interest in phenomenology. He has published on Romanticism, Victorian literature, Modernism and postmodern literature and culture, with particular interests in questions of identity and subjectivity, the politics and poetics of urban representation, the rural subject in English culture, perception in literature, and the relationship between language, music and that which cannot be expressed directly. He is currently working on four books, a study of Victorian poetry and the influence of German Romanticism, a phenomenology of loss, the relationship between subjectivity and loss in the context of Englishness, from John Clare to Virginia Woolf, and the question of place and dwelling in novels of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, from the perspective of the concept of "dwelling".
