The Greatest Hits of Theory (G-HOT) reading group's meetings during the 2002-3003 school year were a great success. The texts discussed were:

• Jurgen Habermas, Legitimation Crisis
• Michel Foucault, Birth of the Clinic
• Julia Kristeva, "Approaching Abjection"
• Jacques Derrida, excerpts from Specters of Marx
• Walter Benjamin, "The Storyteller" and "The Task of the Translator"
  
• Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe, excerpts from Hegemony and Socialist Strategy
• Jean-Francois Lyotard, The Postmodern Condition

We may have a few gatherings during the summer months. Dates and readings will be announced on this website and via the English Department's graduate student listserv. Thanks to everyone who attended the reading group. It was very beneficial to all in attendance.
