A beautiful tribute to Jameson's dialectical method and imagination.

"Again and again, in dozens of books and countless articles, he immersed himself in theories that were alien to his own." @calebsmith203 remembers the late Marxist critic Fredric Jameson, new today on TYR. yalereview.org/article/fredri…



A fascinating bit of Jameson lore, from an era—the "age of three worlds," as Michael Denning has termed it—in which there were meaningful routes of connection between the practice of cultural critique in the university and internationalist movements against capital and empire.

Fredric Jameson (1934-2024) has died. I never met him, nor corresponded with him but I did read him extensively. I first heard of him via Aijaz Ahmad, and then was very interested in his work on Brecht and aesthetics. His book Brecht and Method (1998) is a favourite of mine. His…

Really excited about the conversation that @alyaimsorry and I are putting together at ACLA 2025 (virtual edition), on "Work." The paper proposal portal opens today—be in touch with any questions! acla.org/work


This book—when read alongside Marx's CAPITAL, Fanon's THE WRETCHED OF THE EARTH, Eliot's MIDDLEMARCH, and maybe one or two other works—contains everything you need to know about this world, the cosmic DNA.

A job in my department—Assistant Professor, 19th Century British Literature: uscjobs.sc.edu/postings/174186. This is a truly open search, spanning the Romantic and Victorian periods. I'm on the committee (Tony Jarrells is the chair); be in touch with any questions!


Beautiful player, of the late Wenger years—sublime combinations with Özil, Cazorla, Ramsey, etc. And the sartorial and political instincts are on point too.

"A striking feature of the current protests is their explicit internationalism—their refusal to treat foreign matters as disconnected from domestic injustices." --Aziz Rana, in conversation with Nora Caplan-Bricker @JewishCurrents jewishcurrents.org/reviving-the-l…


Deep empathy for all those players in the NBA whose principal role is to signal, in a cool way, with the right level of enthusiasm, that one of their teammates made a three.


Beautiful. Whatever obtuse and pathological thing administrators/cops do next, the students have already won.

NOW: At least a thousand students at Columbia University are currently encircling the entire interior of campus in attempt to protect the ‘Gaza Solidarity Encampment,’ which was ordered to disperse by 2 PM

Explaining the seder plate at the Columbia encampment. These students truly embody the meaning of Passover in their provisional seder and their commitment to liberation.
