A Civilization of Discontents: A conversation with Nein. Quarterly about Social Media in the Golden Age of Crisis in the Humanities

Meet Twitter Star Eric Jarosinski aka “NeinQuarterly”

Dr. Eric Jarisonski is a writer, speark and #FailedIntellectual based in New York. An expert on modern German literature, culture and critical theory, he recently left academia to devote himself to his post as founding editor of Nein.Quarterly, a critically acclaimed, and non-existent, compendium of utopian negation. Cited as some of the best writing on the web, @NeinQuarterly is quickly approaching 100,000 followers on Twitter in over 100 countries. It also now appears in a four-line print format, with its trademark scowl gracing the opinion pages of Die Ziet, Germany’s leading weekly newspaper.
