Lotringer, Sylvere Silver_nugget
Baudelaire and Mallarme and [FREN W3670] Dada and Surrealism

Please keep in mind that this review is more than 5 years old.

Having class with lotringer was really an easy pleasure. All you have to do is come and hear him speak when you feel like it. He will surely captivate your interest because he is knowledgeable in really almost any subject. He has never come to class with any notes and REALLY knows his stuff. Like for the Dada and Surrealism class, he actually knew the people we were talking about personally (Dali!! baudrillard, Guy Debord, Yves, Klein, and many more) He is very understanding and very nice, like if you're not so comfortable with the french language, you can write your papers in english.
He is really a genius when it comes to contemporary american society, and will allow you to explore any subject of interest to you.

Workload:

for all is classes: 1 short paper (3-4pages), one oral presentation on a subject of interest (can be done in english with no penalty), and one final paper if he remembers. Lots of reading, but you really don't have to do any, read just what you find interesting!
