Reading from A Certain Gesture

I have recently done a few readings from A Certain Gesture: Evnine’s Batman Meme Project and Its Parerga! in Spain, Italy, and most recently here in the US. A video recording of this last was made by the Center for the Humanities at the University of Miami and I am happy to be able to share it with you. It includes:

i. Brief introduction of the event by Phil Harlin, director of the Center for the Humanities

ii. Introduction of my book and me by Aleksandra Hernandez, my colleague in the Dept. of Philosophy (1′ 24″)

iii. Some remarks by me about the book in general (6′ 51″)

iv. “The Savage Detectives and my irascible Yiddish expert” (9′ 36″)

v. The Origins of Neo-platonist Metaphysics (21′ 12″)

vi. For the Letter Kills but the Spirit Gives Life (34′ 35″)

vii. Even You? (41′ 51″)

viii. Discussion with the audience (43′ 23″)
