The Oxford Handbook of Herman Melville
Now, more than a century since the revival that placed Herman Melville at the center of the US literary canon, his work stands as one of the most important touchstones of world literature. The Oxford Handbook of Herman Melville aims to reintroduce readers to a writer whom they think they know well by reexamining Melville’s entire corpus—the novels, short prose, and poetry—in light of the diversity and vibrancy of global Melville Studies. Bringing…
Melville, Beauty, and American Literary Studies
Cody Marrs opens Melville, Beauty, and American Literary Studies with a pointed answer to the predictable questions raised by the study of beauty under the conditions of the present: how to speak of beauty during a time of pandemic, war, climate change, and pervasive inequality? Rather than an inappropriate evasion of suffering or an alienating aestheticization of violence, Marrs argues, beauty—as Herman Melville revealed and engaged it in his wo…
Melville's gravity
This essay examines the aesthetics of gravity across Herman Melville’s prose and poetry to argue that, rather than a figuration of irresistible necessity, the law of gravitation introduces unanticipated contingencies and modes of action into Melville’s work. Building on the insights of scholars who have identified the philosophical significance of thrownness and fallenness in Melville’s writing, this essay argues that the force of gravity also fo…

Writing in 1842, Lydia Maria Child articulates a crisis in the relationship of democracy to sovereign power that continues to occupy political theory today. Is sovereignty, with its reliance on singular and exceptional power, fundamentally in…

Ugly Feelings by Sianne NGAI
Introduction
Introduction:Revisiting the Citizen-Subject Jennifer Greiman (bio) and Kir Kuiken (bio) In 1989, Étienne Balibar responded in Cahiers Confrontations to the question Jean-Luc Nancy had posed to a number of well-known French philosophers earlier that year: "who comes after the subject?" The apparent simplicity of the question belies Balibar's apparently simple answer, which is in fact as difficult as it is unequivocal. Beginning by articulating a r…
