SoSe 24: Post-Classical Theory

Frank Kelleter

Kommentar

This seminar serves as Hauptseminar of Culture-Module A in the Master's degree program. We will study different types of cultural theory that have emerged after the “classical” paradigms of psychoanalysis, phenomenology, orthodox Marxism, and their poststructuralist inflections. Individual sessions will be dedicated to select developments from the 1970s-2000s (revisionary Marxism, field theory, actor-network-theory, systems theory). Additional topics (to be chosen and prepared by students) can include, but are not restricted to, other or later paradigms such as affect theory (e.g., Lauren Berlant, Kathleen Stewart, Sara Ahmed, Margaret Wetherell), post-critique (e.g., Rita Felski, Caroline Levine), new queer theories (e.g., José Esteban Muñoz), trans theories (e.g. Jack Halberstam, Paul Preciado), media archaeology and media ecology (e.g., Lisa Gitelman, Katherine Hayles, Jay Bolter, Richard Grusin), post-cinema theories (e.g., Shane Denson), seriality studies, critical university studies, global history (including perspectives on “settler colonialism”), theories of neoliberalism, critiques of postfeminism (e.g., the Judith Butler-Nancy Fraser debate, Catherine Rottenberg), black feminism (e.g., Combahee River Collective, Audre Lorde, bell hooks), Intersectionality theory (e.g., Kimberlé Crenshaw), critical race theories, critical whiteness studies (e.g., Claudia Rankine), Afropessimism, philosophies of blackness (e.g., Hortense Spillers, Saidiya Hartman), black Marxism, and other paradigms.

Unlike Prof. Kelleter’s lecture course, this seminar will be largely student-driven; more than half of the sessions will be designed and moderated by the participants. Students are expected to familiarize themselves with potential course material (theoretical paradigms and texts) before the first meeting, when all participants will be asked to propose and sign up for one session topic (theoretical paradigm and/or set of texts; compare Syllabus). Registration: All participants need to be registered via Blackboard and Campus Management by the first session. If you cannot register online or cannot attend the first session, please contact Prof. Kelleter before the beginning of the term (no later than April 8). Before our first meeting, all communication about and within this class will be channeled through the course’s Blackboard site, so make sure you are registered there. Organization: Please download the Syllabus and Course Description (with a description of all requirements) from the “Teaching” section of Prof. Kelleter’s JFKI website or from Blackboard (go to “Kursmaterial”; you may have to click on “open Syllabus here” to download it; if this doesn’t work, try a different browser: students have reported problems with the Chrome browser). Please read the Syllabus/Course Description carefully: It contains detailed information about the seminar’s structure and suggestions for preparing “your” session. Note that we will finalize our class schedule in the first two meetings. This means that everyone who wants to attend this course needs to be present in the first session in order to sign up for a topic (student-run session) or have contacted Prof. Kelleter beforehand by e-mail (no later than April 8). First session: April 15.
