The English Institute

COMING THIS OCTOBER! EI 81!!!!

Don’t forget to register for the 80th Meeting of The English Institute, happening this Friday and Saturday at Yale! 80 YEARS is a BFD—don’t you want to be a part of it?! Come for the Catastrophe, stay for the Conversation. web.cvent.com/event/d7a3da52…

@palepalladin No sorry. It’s always been a FTF thing, which is why it’s only been cancelled twice in 80 years—once for WWII and once for Covid. Next year it’ll be in Chicago, and the year after at Irvine if that helps!

@EI_English will there be a live stream for those of us elsewhere?

VERY excited to announce the line-up of extraordinary speakers for the 80th meeting of The English Institute at Yale University, September 22-23, 2023. Our topic is CATASTROPHE. But #EI2023 will be a dream. Put us on your calendar now! And retweet like mad.

@yonina See you there for WrestleMania 2023! xx

@EI_English ✨⭐️🌟💫💫💫

THE CONVERSATION ™️

Cannot wait for day two of #EI2022. Sadly, David Marriott is ill and won’t be joining us, so we’ll begin with breakfast at 10:00, followed by Yoon Sun Lee at 10:45 + THE CONVERSATION + lunch-time taco truck + Shonni Enelow + Sianne Ngai + RECEPTION. See you soon, geeks! ❤️

@yonina @JKramnick @theshapeofform And we love to see a long-time devotee—now with TT job!—shepherd a new flock of graduate students around the EI. Grateful for your devotion Dr. Hoffman.❤️

I love hearing Jonathan Kramnick talk; it’s one of the best parts of English Institute @EI_English I also love Sandra always being in the front row Actually I love everything about EI

Let’s do this!

@imp_lise Oh this is so sad! What a loss.

but anyone attending @EI_English in Irvine can still get there from LA & buses will be running between Oceanside & Irvine

ONE MORE WEEK UNTIL EI 2022 @ IRVINE! Don't miss the brilliant talks, the conversation, the sunshine, tacos and wine. Can't wait to see everyone! (I am quite near-sighted so make sure you come up close to say hello!) Register now at: eventbrite.com/e/the-english-…

@mervatim I wish! We don’t have the infrastructure at the moment. It’s a handful of us holding things together. Maybe in the future it’ll be possible. Meanwhile, we’ll be at Yale in September 2023, so see you then?

Register for the second ever West coast meeting of the English Institute! The doors will be open throughout, and mingling will take place en plein air. There’s no better way to ease yourself back into the face-to-faceness of collective thinking. eventbrite.com/e/the-english-…

@ajwyman YES! I promise you will have a great time—come look for me (my name is Sandra Macpherson).

should i… go to this…

@thomasmanganaro Really??! Yay!! Can’t wait to see you!

I’ll be there!

Ok so it's 8/1 but don't despair! Instead make plans to come to UC Irvine on October 7-8 for the 79th meeting of The English Institute. Nobody wants to miss this extraordinary roster of talks, right?! Registration link to follow shortly. Watch this space, and share madly. xo

The Trustees and Supervisors of the English Institute are delighted to announce that the postponed meeting on ACTION will now take place October 7-8, 2022 in the lovely glass room at UC Irvine. We cannot wait to see you in the flesh and hear from this amazing roster of speakers!

Go biggie!

So excited to revisit this wonderful collection of thoughts on Abstraction from the last time The English Institute was able to meet. @juliajarcho @mkirschenbaum Leela Gandhi, Daniel Stout, Christopher Nealon, and Gordon Tesky dropping some wisdom. ☄️Coming FEB 2022: ACTION!
