In “The Hunger Artists,” a Portland State University graduate English course taught by Dr. Sarah Lincoln, scholars and artists are asked to engage with philosophy, theory, and literature that depicts both the personal and political significances of experiences of hunger, including famine, hunger strikes, anorexia, and other forms of “disorderly eating.” Students from the class will read from their work, inspired by writers such as Kafka, Louise Gluck, and Eavan Boland.
