    Remembering Ann

    Ann Snitow May 9, 1943-August 10, 2019 Ann Snitow, a founding faculty member of Lang College and the creator of the Gender Studies Program at the New School, passed away on August 10, 2019.  She was a beloved member of the Literary Studies faculty.  While indeed her books and essays are crucial texts in feminist studies and in the life of the mind, as Literary Studies colleagues our remembrances here are more personal, testaments not just to her work but to the power of her being.

Albert Mobilio, poet, critic, Associate Professor and Co-Chair of Literary Studies at Eugene Lang, is in conversation with Tony Leuzzi of The Brooklyn Rail, on Mobilio’s recently released poetry collection entitled, Same Faces (2020).

A connection to music, or really what I’d call “mental music” is important. I’m aiming for a voice that is hearable, and even familiar—a voice that moves among dictions, yet still registers as being spoken by a single person. Sentence fragments, unorthodox punctuation, unexpected lineation— these elements are mustered in pursuit of a specific rhythm—the “music” of thinking.
