The human voice does not deceive. The one who is speaking is inevitably revealed by the singular sound of her voice, no matter "what" she says. Starting from the given uniqueness of every voice, Cavarero rereads the history of philosophy through its peculiar evasion of this embodied uniqueness.

Excerpt from The Philosophy of Voice: Showing the Right and Wrong Action of Voice in Speech and Song; With Laws for Self-Culture A thrush perched at the top of an ash-tree in my garden begins pouring out its full ecstasy of song at daybreak, and, with slight intervals for refreshment, ends at sunset. This will go on for two months or so, without the slightest appearance of fatigue or the slightest sign of loss of tone in voice. This is the mode of voice-production that in the following treatise I have endeavoured to induce in human beings, and define its cause. A singular proof of the use of caverns as resonators multiplying sound is found in those birds whose voices are comparatively fixed, such as the common wild duck. There is no capacity of contraction or expansion as there is in us, for the space is bone, and hen birds have it not.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1874 edition. Excerpt: ... that the sonority observed in the speech of an Italian is.owing to the "tonicity" having been retained, for vowels do not necessarily cause the tone, but they allow true vocal tone to grow simultaneous with, and correlative to, the growth of speech. In English, on the other hand, the induced weakness of the adductor muscles forces a compensating obstruction to grow with the growth of our words, so that, considered phonetically, the preponderating vowel sound in English is e; physically, smashed air in the mouth gives our Anglican hue. However great a paradox it may seem, it remains true to all time, that the more beautiful a word as a sound, the more such word frustrates its true function by clinging as a pleasing sensation in transit, for so clinging, it does not use its full force to awaken or to evoke an idea; this is because the direction of thought, as embodied in spoken words, is always to hide or sink the material in the purely abstract spiritual. But when man.speaks, the self-contained force conveyed by the "letter" is modified by an outer manifestation of "spirit," shown through other channels beside that of words. All liberty is dependent upon obedience; man's response to volition is ever restricted within a small compass, in one direction for his advancement, in another for his retrogression. Within this limitation he has freedom of action, and he may change the scale forward or backward, but under every condition the ultimate outlines are sternly defined. Being so, the effect produced by an actor influencing a recipient may be twofold--(1) acute, (2) massive; if the Stimulus be in words alone as such, then it is "acute, but to be effectual in such case, the recipient must be in his desire of advancement, in his power of...

From analytic epistemology to gender theory, testimony is a major topic in philosophy today. Yet, one distinctive approach to testimony has not been fully appreciated: the recent history of contemporary continental philosophy offers a rich source for another approach to testimony. In this book, Gert-Jan van der Heiden argues that a continental philosophy of testimony can be developed that is guided by those forms of bearing witness that attest to limit experiences of human existence, in which the human is rendered mute, speechless, or robbed of a common understanding. In the first part, Van der Heiden explores this sense of testimony in a reading of several literary texts, ranging from Plato's literary inventions to those of Kierkegaard, Melville, Soucy, and Mortier. In the second part, based on the orientation offered by the literary experiments, Van der Heiden offers a more systematic account of testimony in which he distinguishes and analyzes four basic elements of testimony. In the third part, he shows what this analysis implies for the question of the truth and the truthfulness of testimony. In his discussion with philosophers such as Heidegger, Derrida, Lyotard, Agamben, Foucault, Ricoeur, and Badiou, Van der Heiden also provides an overview of how the problem of testimony emerges in a number of thinkers pivotal to twentieth- and twenty-first-century thought.
