"Using a conceptual framework Park calls spatial formalism, this innovative work offers a new perspective on the concept of setting and on the relationship between literature and spatiality."

"fascinating examination of the position of inner spaces in English lit. from the long 18th century...Park examines not only representations of inner space w/in literary works themselves but also the ways actual interior spaces provided the inspiration & enabling conditions of those same works"

He’s a bad person.

And a quick Google search indicates why a journalist for publications that reach over a million would be interested in or at all clued into this world: he's the son of Joan Wallach Scott.

Sidebar point of interest in AO Scott’s piece is the questioning of what it means to be a superstar or celebrity in academia. Jameson reigned during the years that Scott referred to—those “go go years”—as a veteran friend of those years calls them—of the 80s-late 2000s (pre 1st crash)

“but there is one, just 2 words long, that I’ve always thought would make a great inspirational forearm tattoo. ‘Always historicize’ Those are the opening words of The Political Unconscious” NOT a tattoo person but those lines by Jameson would be in my coming of age as a scholar commonplace book
comment in response to post

So interesting. I found out about Ned Fahs, Robert Duncan's previous lover, through his daughter, from whom he hid his homosexuality and prior relationship. She's writing a book now about him and the experience of having a closeted father.
