New term, new meeting time and place, new readings

After much deliberation the Cultural Studies Reading Group has determined our winter schedule, which will be focused around works that make the most of the exciting scholars visiting the university this semester. To this end we will be begin by tackling work by Wendy Brown and Sara Ahmed, before (probably) engaging with the new anthology The Idea of Communism nearer the end of semester.

More specifically, we will be beginning with selections from Wendy Brown's Edgework - chapters two and five - which we will be addressing in our first meeting scheduled for Thursday January 27 in CNH 332 at 4.30pm. Any and all are welcome, and if you need to get your hands on a copy of the reading, please get in touch. Also, if you are interested in maybe dropping in later in the semester, you can email us at readingculturalstudies [at] gmail.com for further information about times and readings, or check out back here at the blog.

Best,
Cultural Studies Reading Group folk
