From affective reading to the theory of affect: Reading / Feeling, Tanja Baudoin, Frédérique Bergholtz and Vivien Ziherl (eds.) (2013), Amsterdam: If I Can't Dance, I Don't Want To Be Part of Your Revolution

The reader Reading / Feeling is the result of a two-year art-theory research programme organised by the Dutch organization If I Can't Dance. Its innovation is not reflected in the selection of texts, but in the methodological approach of opening up a different (affective, paranoid) mode of reading. The compilation offers to a reader various entry points that are not to be taken in only rationally, but also experientially, to be precise, through an affective response.
