Diane Oliva (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) has received a grant from the National Endowment of the Humanities (NEH) for “Seismic Sounds: Music and the Auditory Experience of Disaster in the Eighteenth-Century Atlantic World,” which will lead to a book about music and early modern interpretations of earthquakes as sonic events in eighteenth-century Lima, Lisbon, Boston, and Santiago de Guatemala. Congratulations, Diane!
