Lecture Friday, May 9, 2pm

James Elkins
"Ideas In Sight"

"How to Write a Book Against Another Book": some thoughts and ambitions I had in trying to answer Roland Barthes's "Camera Lucida," thirty years too late. (Or to put it differently: thoughts about how to change the current directions of theorizing on photography, which seem to me stuck in affect, temporality, memory, nostalgia, and documentation.)

Presented by the School of Foundation Studies
Arnold Hall Auditorium, 2pm Friday, May 9
