Michael Taussig, a renowned scholar, will be delivering a captivating lecture titled "Michael Taussig: Shadowless Being" at Classics 110 in Chicago. In this thought-provoking lecture, Taussig will dive into the concept of apotropaisms, which refers to the use of magic against magic in language and writing. He will draw attention to the limitations of conventional social science practices, specifically targeting "agribusiness writing." Taussig will contrast this with the dynamic and unpredictable nature of the Corn Wolf, as influenced by Wittgenstein's critique of Frazer. By emphasizing the magical elements embedded within our language and academic discourse, Taussig aims to raise awareness of their impact and significance. Additionally, he will explore the concept of apotropaisms as a means of survival for writers, and the emergence of organic fetishes resulting from research and writing endeavors. This intriguing event is open to the public, and attendance is free of charge. For any accommodation needs to ensure your full participation, please reach out to ccct@uchicago.edu. Don't miss this opportunity to delve into the realm of magic and language with Michael Taussig at Classics 110 in Chicago.

Absolutely incredible experience!From the moment you enter, you&#39;re immersed in the history and interactive exhibits. The elevator ride adds to the anticipation. Once at the top, the panoramic views are breathtaking. We splurged on the drinks package, and they certainly didn&#39;t disappoint.

Before riding the elevator to the top, there&rsquo;s an exhibition introducing Chicago. It covers architecture, famous people from the city, food, and more. At the tower&rsquo;s summit, you can take in a panoramic view of the entire city. It&rsquo;s definitely a worthwhile experience.
