Emerging out of NYU’s Certificate Program in Poetics and Theory, this reading group seeks to engage with texts from the fields of theory, poetics, and the teratological spaces in between. Collaboratively organized by Poetics and Theory students, this year’s theme is “perversion,” broadly understood. How has “perversion” come to signify a range of ways for engaging with power, discourse, and disciplines? What does perversion do to various epistemic, political, and sexual apparatuses by twisting them from their original courses?
