Literary notes about auditory (AI summary)
The term "auditory" has been used in literature with a remarkable breadth, spanning scientific, psychological, rhetorical, and historical contexts. In works focused on criminal psychology, for example, auditory illusions are analyzed as both phenomena to be tested and as components of human perception ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). In the realm of public speaking and memory, authors explore how auditory images—the recollections of sounds and voices—play a crucial role alongside other sensory experiences ([6], [7], [8], [9], [10]). Historical narratives and essays sometimes invoke the term metaphorically or rhetorically, alluding to the captivating power of sound or even to the capacity of speech to challenge or perplex its listeners ([11], [12], [13]). Additionally, scientific discussions extend the use of "auditory" to describe anatomical and physiological features, such as in references to external auditory canals or the accessory auditory functions evident in certain species ([14], [15]). This diverse deployment illustrates the word's flexibility and its significant relevance across different fields of inquiry.
