Lecture: Eric Jarosinski @NeinQuarterly

Thursday, 7 p.m., PAB 320

Join us for a discussion with Eric Jarosinski, writer, speaker, and #FailedIntellectual based in New York. An expert on modern German literature, culture, and critical theory, Jarosinski recently left academia to devote himself to his post as founding editor of Nein Quarterly, a nonexistent compendium of utopian negation. Cited as some of the best writing on the web, @NeinQuarterly is quickly approaching 100,000 followers on Twitter in over 100 countries. It also now appears in a four-line print format, with its trademark scowl gracing the opinion page of Die Zeit, Germany’s leading weekly. Jarosinski and his work have been featured in numerous international publications, including The New Yorker, the Paris Review, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, The Believer, the Chronicle of Higher Education, Der Spiegel, Neue Zürcher Zeitung, the Wall Street Journal, Slate, and the Irish Times. His first book, Nein. A Manifesto, will be published in 2015. Sponsored by the German department.
