Here’s everything we’re reading in my Monday night class from now until the end of the semester. Sadly, none of these books are available for free so all I can offer are (affiliate) links to the kindle version on Amazon which is what I’m using for class.
Our Aesthetic Categories: Zany, Cute, Interesting by Sianne Ngai
Hyperobjects: Philosophy and Ecology after the End of the World (Posthumanities) by Timothy Morton
Forms: Whole, Rhythm, Hierarchy, Network by Caroline Levine
Slavery and the Culture of Taste by Simon Gikandi
The Limits of Critique by Rita Felski
Loving Literature: A Cultural History by Deidre Shauna Lynch
A bonus is the book I’m using for my second assignment and one that I never pass up the chance to make obnoxious noises about: Glen Weldon’s The Caped Crusade: Batman and the Rise of Nerd Culture.
Once I get my syllabi and books for my other two classes, I’ll put up posts for them. Right now though, I’m just really pleased with the reading list for this class!
