Critical Speaker Series Lecture: Dr. Kornbluh’s “Antifictionality: Immediacy as Literary Style”

Join us for our Critical Speaker Series Spring Finale! Dr. Anna Kornbluh’s lecture “Antifictionality: Immediacy as Literary Style” promises to be an exciting culmination to the 2021-2022 series. You can get tickets for this event through our eventbrite page. Dr. Kornbluh teaches at UI Chicago, where her interests center on Victorian literature and Critical Theory, with a special emphasis in formalism, Marxism, psychoanalysis, and theory of the novel. She is the author of The Order of Forms: Realism, Formalism, and Social Space (University of Chicago 2019), Marxist Film Theory and Fight Club (Bloomsbury “Film Theory in Practice” series, 2019), and Realizing Capital: Financial and Psychic Economies in Victorian Form (Fordham UP 2014). Her current research concerns impersonality, objectivity, mediation, and abstraction as residual faculties of the literary in privatized urgent times. She is the founding facilitator of two scholarly cooperatives: V21 Collective and InterCcECT.
