About Anthropoetics

Anthropoetics, founded in 1995 as UCLA’s first Open Access journal, is devoted to Generative Anthropology, which studies the works of human culture on the hypothesis that language, religion, art, and all things specifically human can be traced to a unique scene of origin. The Chronicles of Love & Resentment have been available since 1995 and number over 750.

Follow the GABlog: Generative Anthropology in the Public Sphere, keep up with us on Twitter, and visit us on Facebook. A bibliography of Generative Anthropology can be found at the Anthropoetics Library Thing page.

Motto Mascot

GASC

Although the 2020 conference at Bar-Ilan University, Israel was regrettably cancelled because of the coronavirus, the 2021 conference was held under the same sponsorship via Zoom on June 14-16. The 2022 GASC took place at the University of Ottawa, mostly on Zoom, on June 21-23. This year’s conference, our sixteenth, will be held in Palo Alto, California, both in person and on Zoom; the conference website is https://gascwebsite.wordpress.com/2021-conference/.

Our 2019 Generative Anthropology Summer Conference was held at the NYC Conference Center (71 West 23rd Street, NY 10010). The 2018 GASC was held at the Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University, Warsaw, Poland; the  2017 GASC at the University of Stockholm, Sweden; the 2016 GASC at the Kinjo Gakuin University in Nagoya, Japan, the 2015 GASC in High Point University, NC, and the 2014 GASC at the University of Victoria, British Columbia.

The Generative Anthropology Society and Conference (GASC) is our membership organization. It supports GA activities such as the GABlog and the GAlist, and particularly our ongoing conference series. We are happy to announce that the GASC website is now back online at https://gascwebsite.wordpress.com ; it permits payment of GASC dues.
