Colloquium: “Reading Matters: A Colloquium in Honor of Kenneth S. Calhoon”

From February 20, 2025 to February 21, 2025

Rochelle Tobias, Johns Hopkins University; Thomas Schestag, Brown University; Helmut Schneider, University of Bonn; Davide Stimilli, University of Colorado; Martina Kolb, Susquehanna University; and UO colleagues.

The colloquium affirms “reading” in the emphatic sense, as it upholds the pressing importance of aesthetical-rhetorical analysis in the approach to material objects and texts during our late modernity haunted by the ghosts of neoclassical ideals.
