This panel invites papers that explore how ekphrasis and musical form translate verbal language from one realm of sensory experience into another. Ekphrasis translates words into visual images, whereas musical form translates them into sounds and rhythms. Although ekphrasis and musical form mirror words, they directly affect the emotions at a primordial level not available to verbal articulation. How do music and the visual arts compare to literature? What are the differences between these modes of expression and how they affect their audiences? Proposals on ekphrasis, musical poetry, poetic music, or theories of intermediality from all periods are welcomed.
