Steven Swarbrick deposited Idiot science for a blue humanities: Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors and Deleuze’s mad Cogito in the group
Literary theory on Humanities Commons 2 years, 11 months agoCan we imagine a Blue Humanities that takes the non-relation as a starting point for ecological thought? I believe we can. Following Shakespeare and Deleuze, this essay engages in a thought experiment that, if it is not too absurd, might, like the ship of fools of medieval times, unmoor the Blue Humanities from its current safe harbor by putting…[Read more]

Steven Swarbrick deposited Shakespeare’s Blush, or “the Animal” in Othello in the group
TC Ecocriticism and Environmental Humanities on MLA Commons 2 years, 11 months agoThis essay examines how the rhetoric of animalization in Shakespeare’s Othello compels us to think early modern categories of race in connection with early modern discourses of “human” versus “animal.” Beginning with Shakespeare’s representation of Iago, I suggest that it is the potential for sameness conditioned by Iago’s counterfactua…[Read more]

TM Literary and Cultural Theory on Humanities Commons 2 years, 12 months agoTraditionally read as a poem about laboring subjects who gain power through abstract and abstracting forms of bodily discipline, John Milton’s Paradise Lost (1667, 1674) more compellingly foregrounds the erotics of the Garden as a space where humans and nonhumans intra-act materially and sexually.
