Long abstractThe experimental essays gathered here had their origin in performance at the 48th International Congress of Medie-val Studies in Kalamazoo, Michigan (May, 2013). The idea of this twelve-way collaboration was dreamed through a series of emails exchanged among Jonathan Hsy, Lowell Duckert, Eileen Joy, and Jeffrey Cohen. We set as our task imagining collective modes for contemplating how to shape the humanities, as well as the communities to which we belong at many levels, to bring about a future more our own, while wondering all the while how that first-person plural comes into being. Building upon a se-ries of sessions at the previous year’s Congress that had focused on the active engagement to which humanists must commit in order not to find themselves in merely passive, reactive, protest-oriented positions within their home institutions as well as at the many other homes we inhabit through daily acts of creation, we hoped to extend and intensify a conversation about how to shape the hu-manities, and ourselves, in the years ahead. We knew from the start that any such intervention had to be fully collab-orative. Changing the world is not a solo project. But the working out of how such alliance and enmeshing might proceed was left to the participants.
