All Welcome.
The paper will be followed by a brief response by Dr. Chris Fleming (UWS).
Eric Gans (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Gans) is Professor of
French at UCLA and the author of ground-breaking books such as /The
Origin of Language/ (University of California Press, 1981), /Originary
Thinking: Elements of Generative Anthropology/ (Stanford UP, 1993), and
/The Scenic Imagination/ (Stanford UP, 2008). Gans is a world leader in
the field of cultural theory and his work on the origin of language is
seminal both in the US and abroad. His most original and significant
contribution is the discussion of the history of human culture as a
genetic or 'generative' development of the origin of language.
Eric Gans is Visiting Professor in the School of Philosophical and
Historical Inquiry. His visit has been made possible through the
contribution of SOPHI, SLC, SLAM, SSPS, The Faculty of Arts, The
University of Sydney; and the University of Western Sydney.
