His volume of literary criticism and intellectual history, “Estetica lui Norman Manea” (Bucharest: Cartea Rom\u00e2neasc\u0103, 2012), was awarded the “Marian Papahagi” prize by the Writers’ Union of Romania and represents the first monograph dedicated to this important post-war Romanian writer, who has been nominated multiple times for the Nobel Prize. The English version of the book, “Norman Manea: Aesthetics as East Ethics,” was published in 2016 by Peter Lang Academic Publishing. In 2017, he published the volume “Against Memory: From Socialist Aesthetics to the New Romanian Cinema” (Bucharest: Eikon), for which he was awarded the Observator cultural prize in the Essay category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SYLLABUS – Academic writing<\/strong><\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Research topics and recommended reading for admission <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. Critical theory: ideologies and aesthetics of socio-cultural polarization<\/p>\n\n\n\n Research that applies critical theory to find relations between aesthetics and social structures: capitalism, postsocialism, neoliberalism, na\u021bionalism, populism, cultural conservativism, anticomunism, europeanisation, (semi)periphery. How moving image and other cultural products become the source of public conflict. Topics such as gender, family, sexuality, migration, religion, nation, education, “political corectness”, anti-elitism or anti-europenism. Projects that seek the interaction of theory with artistic or historical material are encouraged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. The political economy of the field of cultural production<\/p>\n\n\n\n Projects that look at ways the field of cultural production is shaped by financing, institutions, festivals, platforms, public policy, professional precarity, grants, co-productions, distribution, educational infrastructure and power relations in the creative industries. Romanian post-1989 cinema, documentary film, cultural journalism, editorial industries, digital platforms or the economy of festivals are all possible topics to work on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Romanian and Central-East-European Cinema: memory, transition, capitalism<\/p>\n\n\n\n Research on the representations of socialism, transition and capitalism in Romanian and East-European Cinema. Relevant topics of research are labor, migration, entrepreneurship, social class, corruption, family, urbanization, precarity, symbolic violence, de-industrialization, socialist nostalgia and the new imaginaries of success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Intermediate and hybrid cinema formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Research projects on the limits between cinema, literature, theatre, journalism, archive, video-essay, instalation, performance, podcast, social media and interactive documentary. Emphasis can be put on cultural revival processes: how a topic, an image, a trauma, a social cause or a political event migrates from the press to cinema, from literature to documentary, from archive to visual art or from social media to cinema. <\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n Ahmed, Sara.
