DESCRIPTION:The Program in Literature presents \nThe Srinivas Aravamudan A
 nnual Lecture in Critical Theory 2023: February 23-24\, 2023 \n\nSianne N
 gai\, University of Chicago \n\nLecture \nScenes of Error\n \nThrough med
 itations on Hegel\, Kenneth Burke's "dramatism\," and the images of visua
 l artist Ebecho Muslimova\, this talk explores the affective dimensions o
 f dialectical thinking\, especially as the latter involves the risky act 
 of staging and lingering in scenes of error.\n \nThursday\, February 23\,
  2023 \n5:00 - 6:30pm on Zoom & in person  \nRegister here for Zoom: http
 s://duke.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEqcO-rqDwjHtarhdU6EHDyUFRiUO4J9YqK \n
 Optional in-person gathering in Friedl 225 for lecture. Reception to foll
 ow. \n\n\nSeminar \n \nAesthetic Categories\n \nWhat is an aesthetic cate
 gory? In what sense is it a historical phenomenon? How are its two compon
 ents\, spontaneous judgment and a perception of form\, sutured by affect 
 into a distinctive experience? While drawing on philosophers to think abo
 ut these questions\, we can also explore them by focusing on a distinctiv
 ely capitalist aesthetic category: the extravagant and yet impoverished\,
  simultaneously overperforming and underperforming\, fundamentally compro
 mised gimmick.\n \nList of recommended readings by Sianne Ngai (in order 
 of importance): \n- Introduction\, Our Aesthetic Categories\n-"Theory of 
 the Gimmick" (Article version in Critical Inquiry)\n- Chapter Eight from 
 Theory of the Gimmick\n\nFriday\, February 24\, 2023  \n4:30 - 6:00pm on 
 Zoom & in person\nRegister here for Zoom: https://duke.zoom.us/meeting/re
 gister/tJIpcuuqqT4sGdZGDqH31lAfPOhLeHrl6tFY \nOptional in-person gatherin
 g in Friedl 225 for seminar. \n\n\nSianne Ngai is Andrew W. Mellon Profes
 sor of English at the University of Chicago. She is the author of Ugly Fe
 elings (2005) and Our Aesthetic Categories: Zany\, Cute\, Interesting (20
 12)\, winner of the Modern Language Association James Russell Lowell Priz
