Settler Colonialism on Humanities Commons 5 years, 8 months agoThis autobiographical co-authored essay explores how hate speech wounds within the logic of the Palestine exception, whereby Israel-critical speech is subjected to censorship and silencing that does not affect other controversial speech.

Narrative theory and Narratology on Humanities Commons 5 years, 9 months agoThis article introduces the Ingush writer Idris Bazorkin.

At one point, the article contrasts Hardy’s “dense palimpsests of multiply…[Read more]

I don’t think one can begin to understand the literature of the Caucasus without reflecting deeply on the way in which mountains frame our sense of humans’…[Read more]

As we exchange remarks about the impetus and impact of time & place in the generation of ecocritical discourse, I am reminded of Bakhtin’s notion of chronotope. There is a certain imbrication of time, place and person and the question, for me, of who has access to the ecopoetical sublime and when. I wonder if the literary theory derived from…[Read more]
