🔵🔴Access 'Thinking Blue/Writing Red' by Stephen Tumino—an exploration of contemporary #culture through the lens of #Marxism.
'Thinking Blue/Writing Red' interrogates contemporary culture across a range of texts, from the #pandemic (‘#Covid’ and ‘#TrumpSpeak’) to high theory (#Melville's narratives) and popular culture (#Beyoncé's ‘#Formation’ and #SuperBowl performance, #TwinPeaks, metamodern ‘cli-fi’ films). Inspired by #Derrida’s idea of the secret, Tumino examines the significance of social movements (#BLM, #Occupy, alter-globalization) and naïve art (#Darger, #Ryden) to argue that these texts speak of the secrets that capitalism cannot.
This book will be of interest to students in several disciplines, including #philosophy, #literary and #culturalstudies, #filmstudies, #womensstudies, #criticalrace studies, history, #LGBTQ+ studies and #environmentalstudies.
