Lipo-literacy

Abstract

How is the discipline of literary scholarship entangled with body-work? In this creative-critical piece I read fatness and analysis as imbricated plot-lines that render epistemic status a matter of embodiment. Working to produce lipo-literacy as a paradoxical position for the fat academic, I consider how literary discipline is un-read by fat materiality.
