W. J. T. Mitchell

W. J. T. Mitchell is the Gaylord Donnelley Distinguished Service Professor of English and Art History at the University of Chicago. He is also the editor of "Critical Inquiry", and contributes to the journal "October".

His monographs, "Iconology" (1986) and "Picture Theory" (1994), focus on media theory and visual culture. He draws on ideas from Sigmund Freud and Karl Marx to demonstrate that, essentially, we must consider pictures to be living things. His collection of essays "What Do Pictures Want?" (2005) won the Modern Language Association's prestigious James Russell Lowell Prize in 2006.
