Dialogue among artists, writers, social and cultural critics, activists; forms of experimentation, interventions, gestures, strategies, and tactics that tend to spill over from the field of literature and aesthetics into broader social and cultural movements, particularly those involving contestation and resistance, will provide an initial point of departure. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Meeting on a regular basis since fall 2013 to discuss current projects and primary works, members will also be invited to attend and participate in events—readings, lectures, object sessions, film screenings, symposia, conferences, and so on—organized in association with various departments, the professional schools, the Yale University Art Gallery, the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, and other special collections repositories on campus. The Postwar Culture Working Group is thus conceived not only as a forum for interdisciplinary conversation but as a center for a community-in-formation as well as a sounding board on which such extraordinary events can achieve more sustained resonance at Yale. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; color: red;">For more information email:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="mailto:kevin.repp@yale.edu" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;">kevin.repp@yale.edu</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;"> </span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
