I am delighted to be participating in a Wittgenstein seminar at Walaker Hotel in Sogn, from May 11-13. The seminar includes a trip to the site of Wittgenstein’s cabin, which I have never seen. I am honored to find myself in the company of Knut Olav Ã…mÃ¥s and Kjartan Fløgstad. (This whole event will take place in Norwegian.)
My November 2011 paper on the Humanities available in Norwegian
On November 22, I gave a paper on the value of the humanities at Forskningspolitisk seminar organized by Forskerforbundet in Oslo. All the papers from the seminar are now available online. I include the pdf of my own manuscript here: Moi_Verdien av humaniora November 2011. A short version of my own paper was published in Morgenbladet on December 2, 2011, under the title “Ã… lage det som er vanvittig vakkert” (“To make something insanely beautiful.”) You can download a pdf file here.
Article on KnausgÃ¥rd’s Min kamp in Morgenbladet
My article on Karl Ove KnausgÃ¥rd’s Min kamp has just appeared in Morgenbladet (in Norwegian).  The full reference is: Toril Moi, “Skam og Ã¥penhet,” Morgenbladet, 16 December 2011, pp. 44-45. The article will be available online in four weeks. But this link should take you to the full issue (the link doesn’t work on iPads). Just go to pp. 44-45 to read the article. If that doesn’t work, here is a pdf file with the text: Moi Skam og Ã¥penhet.
