@HarlanKellaway @magdor @ProfessMoravec @tmcphers @alothian @laurenfklein I meant #queerOS _fam_! W <3 to #MLA15 from #AAG2015 :)

Nice writeup of my #mla15 talk from @alexismadrigal: “The appeal of facts that blow your mind” fusion.net/story/38218/the-appeal-o... x.com/alexismadrigal/status/55...

Vancouver-I hope to come back when I can explore more. You seem a fantastic city. This has been a smaller, more intimate, collegial #mla15

Anyone else at #mla15 want to find a place to watch the Packers-Cowboys game with me late this morning? @mljockers you’re not here are you?

attn @abbymullen MT @vicesimusknox: Berkey cites Union soldiers capturing Confederate newspapers & printing joke issues #s606 #MLA15

Page not found | Ryan C. Cordell Looks like there has been a mistake. Nothing exists here.

My #mla15 #s606 paper “‘Many Facts in Small Compass’: Information Literature in C19 Newspapers” & slides @ ryancordell.org/mla/many-facts-in-small-...

#mla15 #s604 @Jessifer's timeline of digital pedagogy begins w/intro of blackboards to US classrooms in 1804-"We forget it has a history"

Enjoying #MLA15 Looking forward to #mla16 in Austin http://t.co/hCNyrnQPYm

#s448 #mla15 the conversation in the room is interesting, but I'd really like to hear more from the remote contributors!

#s448 #mla15 another good point about push back from students against the DH practices discussed here

#s448 #MLA15 puts into practice the point @elotroalex made in #s14 remember that much humanities, intellectual wk happens outside academy

Look forward to reading @adelinekoh on #dhthis cat. Identical image “meant” opposite things to people w/different takes on DH #mla15 #s448

So I only noticed last night that there's a track on the second side of the newish T-Swiz album that sounds like a lana del rey song. #mla15

Folks who have been in Vancouver a few days, where’s the best place near #mla15 for breakfast? #fb

Pre-tweeting #mla15 #s420: Here's a quick 4-minute video intro to Six Degrees of Francis Bacon @6Bacon www.dropbox.com/s/kda5xxiq02x3sfn/Six%20...

On the ground in Vancouver. Now to find my way downtown toward #mla15

Whelp, I'm off to the airport-Given colleagues' travel stories the past days, anyone want to place bets whether I make Vancouver? #MLA15

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: They are part of a larger pattern in multiple places, eras.2/2

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: Iconic moments English history are often anticipated earlier in Eurasian development. 1/2

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: if we pair sensibility in Sterne with earlier Chinese thought on subject we avoid the distortion of silo history

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: Need to move from seeing European intellectual history as exceptional, not part of a larger global pattern.

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: Analogy allows us to see Early Modernity beyond eurocentrism to a larger trans-Eurasian context.

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: this isn't about revisionism or collapsing difference: but thinking of Europe from a wider perspective.

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: 17thC Chinese philosophy shows a rejection of received authority & emphasis on the individual

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: there is a move to relocate morality into innate feelings of ones child mind, democratization of sage selfhood. 2/2

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: an integrated historical approach shows a striking amount of parallels between Chinese and European thought, 1/2

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: claim 3: such an approach offers a productive exterior vantage point

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: claim 2: we need to proviencialize to a broader trans-Eurasian perspective

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: claim 1: comparison of concept of self in European and China does have sufficient ground for analogy

#MLA15 #s130 Porter: another comparative approach is revisionist, which also has flaws. Instead what of historical analogy? Of metaphor?
