Hortense J. Spillers, “Shades of Intimacy: What the Eighteenth Century Teaches Us”

Professor Hortense J. Spillers delivered the Henry L. Gates Jr. Lecture, “Shades of Intimacy: What the Eighteenth Century Teaches Us,” on April 27, 2016, at Sterling Memorial Library Lecture Hall, Yale University.
The Gates Lecture, established in 2012 and administered by the Department of African American Studies at Yale, is endowed in the spirit of excellence that Professor Gates (Yale '73) brought to the Yale community, particularly in African American Studies, during his years of undergraduate study and while on the faculty.
The Gates Lectureship is made possible through the generous support of Daniel and Joanna S. Rose.
