The Function of Criticism Radical Thoughts Podcast

This time all four members of the podcast sit down to talk about Terry Eagleton's The Function of Criticism. We discuss the emergence of the "public sphere," the meaning of the intellectual, and the commodification of literature and knowledge. We had some technical issues this time around, but we hope you enjoy the conversation nonetheless.

Radical Thoughts is an attempt to read through as many texts in the Verso Radical Thinkers series as possible in order to come to a better understanding of radical theory and its tendencies. Our goal is to find the problems and frameworks worth addressing in order to move beyond radical thought into radical practice.

Radical Thoughts is an independent project and not associated with Verso Books in any way.
