An original mix of close and distant readings, this monograph em-ploys a variety of disciplines—from literary studies and musicology to philosophy, media theory, and his-tory—to explain Pynchon through music and music through Pynchon. Encyclopedic and eclectic—though never exhaustive—in its approach, Pynchon's Sound of Music discusses the author's use of instruments such as the kazoo, the harmonica, or the saxophone and embarks on close readings of the most salient and musicologically tantalizing passages. Zooming out to a bird's eye view, all his historical musical references and allusions are put into perspective to trace the trends and tendencies in the development of the oeuvre's interest in music. A treasure trove for fans and an invaluable source for future scholarship, this book includes the Pynchon Playlist, a 900+ item catalog of all musical references, and an exhaustive index of more than 700 appear-ances of musical instruments. 2021-07-08T11:27:30Z 2021-07-08T11:27:30Z 2020 book ONIX_20210708_9783035802337_61 9783035802337 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/49852 eng application/pdf Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International 9783035802337.pdf https://diaphanes.net/titel/pynchons-sound-of-music-6007 DIAPHANES 10.4472/9783035802337 10.4472/9783035802337 de114e83-111c-4d72-ae20-e1d5c93a269a 07f61e34-5b96-49f0-9860-c87dd8228f26 9783035802337 Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF) Zürich 10BP12_190037 Open Access Books Pynchon’s Sound of Music Schweizerischer Nationalfonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung Swiss National Science Foundation open access
