Bruce Evan Barnhart is an associate professor of American literature and culture at the University of Oslo and co-director of the project Literature, Rights, and Imagined Communities.

His research interests include African American literature, post-Marxist theory, jazz, and Caribbean aesthetics.
"When I think about the most amazing things that humans can do, I can't help but think about high level jazz musicians. The amount of information that they're processing—harmonic, melodic, rhythmic information all on the spot—and the act of not only taking it all in and figuring out where they fit in it, but also responding to it and creating something with a certain form and meaningfulness to it is, I think, one of the most impressive things that I've known any human being to do.
And that's worth thinking about in terms of human capacities. And it's also, of course, going back to this idea that music is sophisticated as something like what Duke Ellington would create was labeled as 'jungle music' in the twenties. It's a sign of the way race was and continues to be a way in which all sorts of human creativeness and inventiveness and intelligence is under-recognized or dismissed."
