You are invited to the Patten Lecture Series.
Literary critic W.J.T. Mitchell from the University of Chicago will speak at this free series on:
"Images and Others -- Migration, Law and the Image: Beyond the Veil of Ignorance"
Tuesday, March 30
7:30 p.m.
Rawles Hall, Room 100
Mitchell will discuss the convergence of three disciplines: the law, with its entire edifice of judicial practice and political philosophy; migration, as the movement and settlement of living things, especially (but not exclusively) human beings, across the boundaries between distinct habitats; and iconology, the theory of images across the media, including verbal and visual images, metaphors and figures of speech as well as visual representations.
