Bio
BA, MA, PhD University of Chicago. Dr. Lehrich holds particular interests in early modern European intellectual, science, and religious history; ancient and medieval China; analytical theory and method; comparison; and especially the history of magic and occultism. He also has long-term interests in ritual and music. Lehrich's current project is a comparative, theoretical examination of certain trends in Western "classical" art music, from Palestrina to Schoenberg, in which he will be investigating how the thought of Theodor Adorno, Claude Levi-Strauss, Jacques Derrida, and Jean-Jacques Nattiez can shed new light on old problems in the study of ritual.
