Join us for a talk with Radhika Koul, Assistant Professor of Literature at Claremont McKenna College:

Few iterations of the concept of modernity can ignore seventeenth-century France. Drawing examples from the work of medieval Kashmiri thinkers, this talk probes the aesthetic dimensions of this conceptualization and brings the very tradition of modernity-wrangling, especially one that historicizes this turn, within the fold of its comparativist critique.

This event is co-sponsored by the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures and the France Chicago Center.
