Academic literacy used to be considered a complex set of skills that develop automatically as a by-product of academic socialization.

Last Day Every Day: Figural Thinking from Auerbach and Kracauer to Agamben an…
Where is film analysis at today? What is cinema theory up to, behind our backs? The field, as professionally defined (at least in the Anglo-American academic world), is presently divided between contextual historians who turn to broad formations of modernity, and stylistic connoisseurs who call for a return to old-fashioned things like authorial vision, tone, and mise en scène. But there are o…
