Publics and Academics | Crooked Letter, I
https://crookedletteri.wordpress.com/2012/04/10/publics-and-academics
Crooked Letter, I. This week’s readings all deal in some dimension with the relationship between the academy and the public. In short, all of them advocate for a new (or a return to, depending) collaboration between the work done in universities and colleges and issues relevant to communities in which these schools are located. John Seely Brown, Ann Pendleton-Jullian, and Richard Adler, From Engagment to Ecotone : this piece studies the place of the 21. New Directions for Teaching and Learning. Rosa A...

Notes on Russell Jacoby’s The Last Intellectuals | Crooked Letter, I
https://crookedletteri.wordpress.com/2012/03/27/notes-on-russell-jacobys-the-last-intellectuals
Crooked Letter, I. Notes on Russell Jacoby’s The Last Intellectuals. Jacoby’s The Last Intellectuals is written in a very accessible style. This is largely by design, as Jacoby wishes to perform the kind of public intellectual work that he argues is largely missing from the post-World War II generation. Indeed, this thesis, represented in the title, and the act of tracing the disappearance of public intellectuals occupies much of the book. Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Notes on Stephen Schneider’s You Can’t Chain an Idea | Crooked Letter, I
https://crookedletteri.wordpress.com/2012/04/05/notes-on-stephen-schneiders-you-cant-chain-an-idea
Crooked Letter, I. Notes on Stephen Schneider’s You Can’t Chain an Idea. These excerpts from Stephen Schneider’s. You Can’t Chain an Idea. Important to Schneider’s study is the concept of frames, which (according to sociologists Snow, Benford, and Zald) are interpretive schemata that allow individuals to organize, respond to, and transform experience. These frames help structure beliefs and allow paths of agency: in short, they work towards forming collective identity. Feed for this Entry.

Notes on Pezzullo’s Toxic Tourism | Crooked Letter, I
https://crookedletteri.wordpress.com/2012/02/22/notes-on-pezzullos-toxic-tourism
Crooked Letter, I. Notes on Pezzullo’s Toxic Tourism. In addition to having the coolest name of any author we’ve read this semester, Phaedra Pezzullo has written one of my favorite books we’ve read and discussed. It’s not that I always find myself agreeing with her, but rather I find the upfront, all-cards-on-the-table political approach of Pezzullo’s writing refreshing. Can you use the master’s tools to take down the master’s house? Responses to “Notes on Pezzullo’s Toxic Tourism”. Feed for this Entry.

Arendt Discussion Questions | Crooked Letter, I
https://crookedletteri.wordpress.com/2012/02/28/arendt-discussion-questions
Crooked Letter, I. Let’s start by defining some terms germane to Arendt’s work. Vita active. Labor. Work. Action. Public. Private. Social. Political. I want to look at the passage concerning the location of freedom on page 31. Like Calhoun (? Arendt associates freedom with the public sphere and the political realm. How does this compare/contrast with other writers’ we have read thus far? Where is subjectivity located for Arendt? Responses to “Arendt Discussion Questions”. Feed for this Entry. You are com...
