Language, Knowledge, and Representation Sample Clauses

Language, Knowledge, and Representation. This track traces shifts in language use, and vital changes in configurations of knowledge and representation within a global setting. We consider questions such as: How are personal, social, and geographic boundaries challenged and shaped through increased linguistic and cultural contact? How are past approaches to knowing destabilized, and our perceptions of reality transfigured through exposure to new intellectual currents on the global horizon? How do these currents create irrevocable ruptures in processes of representation and experiences of consciousness? How does technology alter our access to knowledge and the ways we communicate that knowledge? Themes: discourse, textuality, virtuality, media, simulation, realities and imaginaries, modernity and postmodernity.
