Bio

Jason Mohaghegh is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Northeastern Illinois University. His work attends to the rise of contemporary avant-garde movements across both the Middle East and the West, tracing the transformative impact that such currents of experimental literature and philosophy bear for comparative questions of being, reality, consciousness, and aesthetics. To this end, he has completed two forthcoming works on the subject of “chaos”, respectively titled The Poetics of Chaos: Theorizing the New Postcolonial Text and The Chaotic Imagination: Emergent Literatures, of Burial and Blindness. Furthermore, he is engaged with a current project on the existential dimensions of "cruelty", with an acute focus dedicated to Middle Eastern new wave poetry and its convoluted implications for the future of postmodern and posthumanist thought.
