  • An Excess of Seeing: The Pasts, Presents, and Futures of Mikhail Bakhtin - A Public Symposium

An Excess of Seeing: The Pasts, Presents, and Futures of Mikhail Bakhtin - A Public Symposium

Friday, December 6, 2019

9:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M.

Location: Bridgwaters' Lounge, Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center

The Center for Theoretical Inquiry in the Humanities will host a symposium of invited speakers to examine Bakhtin’s generative contributions to the humanities.

Full description:

Mikhail Bakhtin (1895­–1975) is one of the most celebrated scholars in (and of) the humanities, a Christian philosopher, literary critic, and scholar of linguistics who introduced a complex of concepts and theories to the study of texts, subjectivity, and language, as well as aesthetics and ethics. After completing a twelve-week reading of selected works by Bakhtin in Fall 2019, the Center for Theoretical Inquiry in the Humanities will host a symposium of invited speakers to examine Bakhtin’s generative contributions to the humanities.

Speakers include Richard Bauman (Indiana University), Ruth Coates (University of Bristol), Ilya Kliger (New York University), Martha Kelly (University of Missouri), and Alina Wyman (New College of Florida), all of whom have examined and/or deployed Bakhtin’s theories and concepts in their own works.

This symposium is presented by the Center for Theoretical Inquiry in the Humanities, and co-sponsored by the Department of Anthropology, the Department of Comparative Literature, the Department of English, the Department of Germanic Studies, the Department of Religious Studies, the Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures, and the Russian and East European Institute.
