“Like other visitors to Freud’s working space, Engelman described feeling overwhelmed by the sheer number of antiquities on display. ‘Wherever one looked, there was a glimpse into the past.’” @GeorgeProchnik on photographing the setting of Freud’s life. cabinetmagazine.org/issues/72/proc…

"These books have not passed through a human; they remain ignorant of culture and society." —Sally O'Reilly for @cabinetmagazine cabinetmagazine.org/issues/70/orei…

Imagine being named John Smith. Now imagine being the avant-garde filmmaker of that name, maker of “The Girl Chewing Gum” and other gems. Now imagine being asked to write on “Webster’s Timeline History: John Smith, 1580–2007.” cabinetmagazine.org/issues/70/smit…

In our latest issue, former New Zealand Poet Laureate David Eggleton visits the city of Bristol via antipodal Dunedin in a truly psycho geographical romp. “Let a medley of quotations serve to evoke this aura of sinister criminality clinging to … Bristol.” cabinetmagazine.org/issues/70/eggl…

Time to re-read Asef Bayat’s excellent immanent critique of Habermas’s 2023 statement on Gaza & how it betrayed the entirety of Habermas’s earlier writings on the “public sphere,” “rational dialogue” and “deliberative democracy”? “Enlightenment” for some.. newlinesmag.com/argument/juerg…

I should also recommend George Prochnik's truly beautiful and brilliant essay in @cabinetmagazine on Freud's trip to America, his doomed quest to meet a porcupine, and more. it's splendid and moving cabinetmagazine.org/issues/26/proc…

"How can one think from within brokenness, from within the ruins, and still produce meaning, and even possibility?" Shahram Khosravi, the great anthropologist writes in @cabinetmagazine as American and Israeli bombs fall on Iran. cabinetmagazine.org/issues/71/khos…

With bombs falling on Iran, Shahram Khosravi examines what it means for the defeated of the earth to face their serial losses with “an open face,” as counseled by his father. How can we understand defeat as critique’s ethical point of departure? cabinetmagazine.org/issues/71/khos…

“Rocks Laying Around.” During his ’84 presidential campaign, Jesse Jackson made one of the greatest political speeches in US history. Moral clarity, political acumen, passion for justice, and biting humor all rolled into 7 minutes of incandescent oratory. youtube.com/watch?v=GriU9k…
