Timeline
Elaine Scarry (born June 30, 1946) is an American essayist and professor of English and American Literature and Language.
She is the Walter M. Cabot Professor of Aesthetics and the General Theory of Value at Harvard University.
Her interests include Theory of Representation, the Language of Physical Pain, and Structure of Verbal and Material Making in Art, Science and the Law.
She was formerly Professor of English at the University of Pennsylvania.
She is a recipient of the Truman Capote Award for Literary Criticism.
She is the author of The Body in Pain which is known as a definitive study of pain and inflicting pain.
She argues that physical pain leads to destruction and the unmaking of the human world, whereas human creation at the opposite end of the spectrum leads to the making of the world.
The article's basic hypothesis – which does not enjoy support from most scientists or engineers – is that electromagnetic interference from a P-3 Orion aircraft may have been responsible for the center fuel tank explosion during that flight in 1996.
Scarry subsequently published another article hypothesizing that another plane crash, that of EgyptAir 990, was caused by electromagnetic interference of the type that could result from transmission from a military source in the vicinity of the crash.
In 1998, she delivered the essay 'On Beauty and Being Just', for the Tanner Lectures on Human Values, an inquiry into the disparagement of beauty in western civilization in the twentieth century.
In 1998, Elaine Scarry authored an article The Fall of TWA 800: The Possibility of Electromagnetic Interference which appeared in The New York Review of Books.
Her 1999 study, Dreaming by the Book won the Truman Capote Award for Literary Criticism.
This article, entitled "The Fall of EgyptAir 990", was also published in The New York Review of Books on October 5, 2000.
In a critique of Professor Scarry's hypothesis, Professor Didier de Fontaine, Professor Emeritus at UC Berkeley, discusses what he views as the less than scientific basis of Scarry's "unfriendly skies" scenarios, and concludes that she has engaged in "voodoo science".
In 2014, she published a book about nuclear weapons, Thermonuclear Monarchy, in which she 'explores the baleful political consequences of limiting the control of nuclear weapons to a select few, and the authority to launch them to even fewer – in the case of the United States, to the president alone in what amounts to his monarchical power.'
