Tanoukhi will talk about writing for scholarly publication and professionalization strategies/experiences by referencing two essays published at different moments in her scholarly career: “The Scale of World Literature,” (New Literary History, 2008) and “Surprise Me If You Can,” (PMLA, 2016). This workshop will offer graduate students and faculty the opportunity to talk together about the art of the essay, discuss the benefits and challenges of publishing as a graduate student, and learn about how to start building a scholarly portfolio.

Please RSVP to hummel@umich.edu or emcneill@umich.edu to receive pre-reading. Refreshments will be served.
