  I am Associate Editor of this Encyclopedia project, overseeing two different sections: "Gender/Sexuality" and "Transnational Studies." The book will have two forms: printed copy and online copy (both are peer-reviewed). All essays in the book version will be available on the online version. Some essays on the online version will be essays that were submitted too late to make it into the print version but were still solicited by us and underwent peer review.This was an enormous undertaking but also enjoyable and will a very collegial set of editors.

  An Archive of Feelings @ 20

  . American Studies Association. Montreal: ASA.
  More info

  This roundtable brings together a multi-generational group of scholars to reflect on Ann Cvetkovich’s An Archive of Feelings @ 20. Operating at the intersections of the affective turn and the archival turn in cultural studies, An Archive of Feelings: Trauma, Sexuality, and Lesbian Public Cultures (Duke UP, 2003) is, among other things, a method book that sought to enable others, especially graduate students, to find ways to work with marginalized, minor, and undocumented feelings and publics and to create new forms of archives to document the undocumented. Through bringing together scholars from different critical theory generations, the roundtable enacts the 2023 conference’s call to practice solidarity via queer and feminist horizontal networks of care and collaboration.As a method, An Archive of Feelings highlights the creative and experimental ways that queer, lesbian, racialized, and disabled minoritarian subjects archive their affective experiences of everyday life—and thus build new affective publics. In this vein, it thinks about affective publics or solidarities as ways of circulating love and healing, seeking a critical approach to historical violence and afterlives of slavery, settler colonialism, and systemic racisms that moves beyond paradigms of trauma to richer conceptions of feeling, affect, and sensation. In cultivating attention to bodies and sensation, An Archive of Feelings creates a jumping off point for new explorations of affect and its felt impacts in not only critical race studies and gender & sexuality studies but also sound studies and museum and archival studies.Through archiving the affects of everyday life enshrined in queer and feminist writing, film, protest, and performance, An Archive of Feelings also underscores the importance of engaging with the ephemeral when conducting historical work. In the introduction to the book, Cvetkovich remarks on “how perilously close to being lost even the recent past is” (10), framing the counter-archives that queer art creates as simultaneous counter-narratives—or, in some cases, the only narratives of these lived experiences. As a result, such archives of feeling intervene in monolithic national histories, particularly those that tell the story of capital-T trauma. Finally, An Archive of Feelings holds to queer intimacies as a model for relationality in the world and in scholarship. Writing from a place of exchange with others, An Archive of Feelings reinforces the importance of shared affective experience between collaborators (which some may write off as being too “subjective”), as also modeled in the work of the late José Esteban Muñoz. Bringing together real time fellow travelers of the text with former graduate students and their peer networks, this roundtable offers a model for collaboration in an increasingly precarious and fractured academia. Thus the panel seeks also to perform various kinds of solidarity across generations, disciplines, and identities in order to ask how relations – of love, of conflict – can form the basis for scholarship and the communities that we build around it.
