Practices of Commentary Reading Group: Orality and Written Textuality
When and Where
Description
The Practices of Commentary reading group brings humanities researchers of different backgrounds together to discuss matters of common interest. The group meets once a month in a hybrid mode (i.e., both in person and online).
Every session is led by a graduate-student researcher who introduces in 5 to 10 minutes an article, a book chapter (or chapters), or a book on a selected theme. A discussion then follows, open to all participants. Every session is one hour long. If you have any questions or would like to propose a reading, researchers from all universities are warmly invited to contact the group coordinator, Oliver Salem (o.salem@mail.utoronto.ca), who will be happy to help out and/or provide information.
This semester, the reading group will centre on the theme of Orality and Written Textuality, as well as the interactions between both.
For registration to attend in person or online, please email o.salem@mail.utoronto.ca.
