“STRANDED ON THE SHORES OF HISTORY”? MONUMENTS AND (ART‐)HISTORICAL AWARENESS

History and Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Can past agents deliberately influence our historical awareness by designing objects’ appearances and sending them to us down the stream of time?

Among the most commonly reported impacts of anthropogenic noise are its effects on acoustic communication.
