My theory is that no one in academia actually knows how citation styles work, you spend all your mental energy on getting the punctuation in Chicago Style right until you hand in your dissertation and then after you get 5 different style sheets a week and hope for the best (& so. else‘s copyedits)

Man publiziert, idealerweise im Feuilleton, man macht „politisches“ Theater, applaudiert sich gegenseitig, aber auf die Straße gehen, vielleicht auch nur mal den Mund auf machen in Räumen in die andere gar nicht reinkommen… man ist ja unter sich, und damit würde man sich ja unbeliebt machen.

Die meisten „linken“ Akademiker sind eigentlich Liberale - es geht nie um Protest oder Arbeitskampf der eine wirkliche Solidarität erfordern würde, das Ziel ist immer erstmal das eigene kulturelle Kapital. Diversität ist in dem Fall auch nur „kosmetisch“ zu verstehen, reine Sichtbarkeit.
Dieses Projekt wirkt tatsächlich so, als wäre der Aufstieg der radikalen Rechten nur eine weitere Möglichkeit für ,kulturelles Kapital‘. Beim Zentrum für politische Schönheit ist es ja ähnlich.

Has any lit scholar colleague yet done a piece on the Booktokification of „Wuthering Heights“ (otherwise I‘m claiming this term and will use it for … something)
