Timothy Luke is professor of Political Science at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. His numerous books focus on social theory (Social Theory and Modernity), cultural criticism (Screens of Power: Ideology, Domination, and Resistance in Informational Society), international politics (Ecocritique: Contesting Politics of Nature, Economy, and Culture), and more recently, museum aesthetics and politics (Shows of Force: Power, Politics, and Ideology in Art Exhibitions - and the upcoming Power Play: Cultural Studies as Critique).

Luke will discuss artistic and non-artistic museums in terms of Aesthetics and their subsequent relations to politics of history, nature, science, technology, and commodification in his AHC presentation entitled
"Museum Pieces: The Politics of Aesthetics and Knowledge at the Museum."

Are you interested in presenting virtually?

This year, the AHC is looking for web-based submissions which emphasize topics in the Humanities. Ideally, submissions should blur the distinction between traditional scholarly research and the new web-based media. If interested, please submit a URL for review. Accepted sites will be linked from the AHC website and given a subject-line on a HyperNews article. Then, calls to repond will be posted on CFP and other pertinent lists and groups. Finally, on April 12th, 1997, a series of workshops will be hosted on Lingua MOO to enable discussions between authors and interested parties. Please contact David Rieder at
daveR@uta.edu with questions and URL submissions. *
