Event overview
Goldsmiths Literature Seminar
Helen Palmer will be in conversation with Dr. Vikki Chalklin (lecturer and performer, Goldsmiths).
The book is an original exploration of Deleuze's dynamic philosophies of space, time and language, bringing Deleuze and futurism together for the first time. Helen Palmer investigates both the potential for creative novelty and the pitfalls of formalism within both futurist and Deleuzian linguistic practices. Through creative and rigorous analyses of Russian and Italian futurist manifestos, the 'futurist' aspects of Deleuze's language and thought are drawn out.
Dr. Helen Palmer is a lecturer, theorist and writer in the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Goldsmiths. Working at the intersections of philosophy, avant-garde studies, creative writing and queer theory, she is currently writing a chapter for a new philosophical publication on Deleuze and Guattari's A Thousand Plateaus, and a second monograph on Russian formalism and queer theory entitled Queer Defamiliarisation: A Reassessment of Estrangement.
Her book will be on sale at a discounted price at this event.
