Critical Exchange session at the Northeast Modern Language Association
convention in Boston, March 6-9, 2003. Presentations engaging the
aesthetic and the political, perhaps involving critiques or
reconfigurations of aestheticism, the (im)possibility of avoiding the
aesthetic dimension, or a broader engagement between philosophy and
politics, theory and practice, etc, perhaps in a specific framework such
as language, class, sexuality, or ethnicity. Various approaches

texts, media, or authors, etc. Abstracts due 9/15/02 to Scott DeShong,
