A good day when you get to go to a colleague’s talk!

He has a smile so big, after the numbers are in and now he talking, as if casually, with gym Jordan … it is like a scene from middle school

My holiday reading. Just put away everything from the last 2 years on cinema and sound studies and set up this next round of books to think with. There are one or two papers in here and i intend to find them! (A bit like “Where’s Waldo, I suddenly realize 🙏) (Photo shows book by Arendt, Butler, Kafka, Felman, Spillers and more — there is a course in here too: my grad seminar, called “Arendt and… “)

I like to think Shell Shocked, my book on Feminist Criticsm after Trump (2021) contributed in some small way to this excellent choice for word of the year: “gaslighting ,” though the definition here is less insidious than the sense one gets from Homer, Morrison, the film Gaslight, and the series Stranger Things (which I discuss) Importantly, as I argue, the gaslight in all of these sources is not just poison but also cure (or off-ramp anyway) #feministtheory, #politicaltheory, #democratictheory

I was writing these lines for Shell Shocked (2021) on the Saturday after the 2020 election. Now today, once again, this post-election Saturday is improbably sunny, and some good news is rolling in. Fingers crossed.

New book alert! A history of naturalization for legal and literary audiences: how Mary Queen of Scots' son James ignited immigration law as we know it, reconceives the eighteenth century as what I call a "paranational" period, and offers major new interpretations of novels such as Frankenstein and Robinson Crusoe….
