Join students and faculty from the Department of Comparative Literature for a dynamic discussion of new media and the vanishing of the material.
In the morning, keynote speaker Timothy Murray, professor of comparative literature and English at Cornell University and author of Digital Baroque: New Media and Art and Cinematic Folds, will lead a roundtable discussion of papers by USC graduate students. (These papers will be available for online reading on the USC Comparative Literature Web page in the weeks before the symposium.)
In the afternoon, Professor Murray will give a lecture related to the themes of the symposium, followed by a question and answer session.
The USC Comparative Literature Symposium is an annual event organized by the graduate students of the USC Department of Comparative Literature. In the past, it has been funded by several USC College departments and centers and the USC College Graduate Professionalization Initiative. The format changes somewhat each year, but one constant is that distinguished symposium guests — among them Giorgio Agamben, Homi Bhabha, Judith Butler, Jacques Derrida and Samuel Weber — respond to students’ lectures. The USC Department of Comparative Literature has a rich and successful tradition of hosting both emerging and established scholars for symposia, to the great benefit of the campus community.
Lunch will be provided. All faculty and students are welcome to attend.
