LIAS Lecture: „Stuart Hall and the Conjuncture of 1956“
Tuesday, May 14th, 6:15 pm–8:00 pm
14. May
The lecture will aim to offer some orienting notes toward the biography of Stuart Hall David Scott is in the process of writing. Rather than a fully detailed account of the "conjuncture of 1956," he will urge that this conjuncture is crucial to the overall story of Stuart Hall's life and work because it forms a hinge that connects and separates his formative years as a colonial subject in Jamaica in the 1930s and 1940s and the first emergence of the political intellectual, Stuart Hall, in the middle 1950s.
