20. Medienworkshop - Arab Cultural Studies and the Concept of Experience
with Tarik Sabry (University of Westminster, London)
24.06.2022
The aim of this workshop is to continue the inquiry into knowledge production within the field of Arab Cultural Studies. Tarik Sabry, editor of the volume Arab Cultural Studies. Mapping the Field (2012), invites us to think about possible objects of research and practices to be studied in relation to the concept of experience. This also includes a critical reading of British Cultural Studies.
The workshop consists of two parts, an introductory lecture and the actual workshop, in which the participants discuss selected articles on the topic in an intensive reading session of three hours. The texts will be distributed in advance.
