Touching Feeling: Affect, Pedagogy, Performativity (Series Q)

"Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's gift is to electrify intellectual communities by reminding them that 'thought' has a temperature, a texture, and an erotics. With a generosity that is at once self-abnegatingly ascetic, and gorgeously, exhibitionistically bravura, she opens door after door onto undiscovered fields of inquiry. There are too many high points inTouching Feelingfor me to list them. Sedgwick's language, richly garlanded, syntactically showstopping, gives, everywhere, its characteristic, always surprising pleasure."-Wayne Koestenbaum, author ofAndy WarholEve Kosofsky Sedgwick is the author of 'Touching Feeling: Affect, Pedagogy, Performativity (Series Q)', published 2003 under ISBN 9780822330288 and ISBN 0822330288.
