History of Emotions Working Group

A Townsend Center Working Group focusing on emerging methods in the study of history of emotions across disciplines.
The recent efflorescence of novel approaches to the history of emotions has led observers to suggest an emotional turn in scholarship. Reassessing interior states conventionally assumed to be hardwired and intrinsic to human nature, the history of emotions insists on their contingency and social transience.

Townsend Working Group in Contemporary Art

The goal of the Townsend Center Working Group in Contemporary Art is to broaden conversations across disciplines and institutions.

 The goal of the Townsend Center Working Group in Contemporary Art is to broaden conversations across disciplines and institutions. Scholarship in contemporary art occurs across many departments on campus well beyond History of Art—Rhetoric/Film Studies, New Media, Art Practice—yet most opportunities for interaction are either extremely narrow (e.g. the personal conversation, the classroom) or broad (e.g. the public lecture, the exhibition). Our aim is to establish an intimate forum that fosters conversation and information sharing among faculty, curators, students and artists.
