The goal of the lunch is not to present finished scholarship, but to share ideas about work that is either just underway or imagined, and to do so in a way that invites the potential for creative input from other disciplines. The assembled group will bring a range of disciplinary perspectives on the topic, and each discussion will be introduced and led by someone committed to an interdisciplinary approach to the topic.
