Publishing, in Theory
How can critical theory be made accessible to a broader readership? What role do the publishers play in this process?
In this episode, Joanna Walsh and Temmuz Süreyya Gürbüz talk about their new books Amateurs! and Judith Butler & Film. Walsh and Gürbüz discuss the hybrid realm of critical theory and creative practice, the processes of writing and publishing theoretical books that aim to attract a more ‘general audience,’ and creative ways of navigating the restrictions of the publishing world.
This conversation was recorded live as part of MoLI’s First Friday series.
