Amitava Kumar from Penn State (Guest Lecturer): "The Rate At Which Writing Travels"
Abstract: People travel. Books do too. What is the rate at which, in a globalized world, writing travels in comparison with people? Amitava Kumar's talk--a reading from published as well as new work--will be a report on migrant writing. It will be a commentary on the borders not only between nations but between conditions of knowledge that leave us among a divided world and a divided people.
Professor Kumar will show and lead a discussion on his documentary "Pure Chutney."
