Conversion Remains: Achievement and Diaspora

Daniel Colucciello Barber received his PhD from Duke University, where he worked in Religious Studies and the Program in Literature. He has been based in New York for several years, where he has taught at New York University, Marymount Manhattan College, and The City University of New York. His recently published book, On Diaspora: Christianity, Religion, and Secularity (Cascade), addresses the intersection between differential ontology, critiques of the secular, and genealogies of religion. The manuscript of another book, The Future of Immanence: Metaphilosophy and the Fabulation of Icons, is presently under review. His writing has appeared in various publications, including SubStance, The Brooklyn Rail, Symposium, Southern Journal of Philosophy, and The Journal for Cultural and Religious Theory.

This event is free and open to the public. For further information, please contact the Centre for Diaspora and Transnational Studies.
