Their piece—titled “What is a Working-Class Intellectual?”—was written in response to a call for papers analyzing the position of academics with working-class backgrounds, and draws on the work of Barthes, Arendt, Lévi-Strauss, and Kafka (among others).

Billy GoehringLarry’s main research interests include critical theory and the political thought of Sartre and Merleau-Ponty. Billy is preoccupied with questions of nature, history, and natural history. He primarily focuses on the French tradition, but also works on the history of Neo-Confucianism.
