This transcript is an excerpt from a longer interview Camlot conducted with Clement on December 14th, 2024, as part of Camlot's Literary Listening project, designed to demonstrate the importance of sound studies for literary study through discussions with researchers from diverse disciplines about the concepts and practical approaches they use to listen in their scholarly and critical work.
