| Summary: | "This volume comprises papers culled from continent. journals Pedagogies of Disaster conference held in Tirana, Albania, hosted by The Department of Eagles (Departamenti i Shqiponjave) in June 2013, and organized to address the fate of relation and the future of pedagogical practice in the University, and especially as it concerns the humanities. The papers gathered here seek to address the infrastructural or interpersonal changes in the modes of production as it relates to current academia, examining the elements and spaces of the rifts opening up in the polis of the University, its students, professors and administrators. The volume further addresses the pedagogical horizon at a critical limit, asking: for whom or for what are we teaching and from whom or from what are we learning?"--Publisher website. |

| Item Description: | "About The Department of Eagles>> In 1968, the Belgian conceptual artist Marcel Broodthaers created the first of a series of installations entitled Musée de l?art moderne, Département des Aigles (Museum of Modern Art, Department of Eagles), a fictional museum department without building or collection, only existing as a constellation of ideas, debates, exhibitions, lectures, objects, and labels. The Département des Aigles was first of all a space in which it was possible to imagine what a museum could be. In 2011, Departamenti i Shqiponjave (Department of Eagles) was established in Tirana, Albania? the?Country of Eagles?? as a weekly reading group bringing together students and scholars from diverse regions such as art, law, anthropology, philosophy, computer science, and international relations, in an attempt to reinvigorate the discourse of the?liberal arts,? the studies? ranging from grammar to music and mathematics? of the free man. Over the last two years, this interdisciplinary group has developed into an independent platform for artists and thinkers, and it now aims to establish itself as core cultural actor in Tirana and Albania."--Publisher website. |
