We are seeking additional chapters for a collection entitled Technologies of Feminist Speculative Fiction to provide for more well-rounded coverage of the topic. This collection is focused on the range of new speculative texts by women and about issues such as gender identity, reproductive control, and biopolitical governance that have appeared in the past 5-10 years. In particular we are interested in papers that analyze novels that engage with questions of how technology today can...

Digital Heroisms (5th June, 2020) In partnership with the University of Glasgow’s Games and Gaming Lab (GGlab) “The power of the fantasy increases if it offers us something genuinely new and compelling. The limitations of our own corporeality can be abolished or the ground rules changed to give us new experiences.” Kathryn Hume, Fantasy and Mimesis Where readers once understood heroism through a Gilgamesh, a Frodo or a Katniss, the digital subject can now figure heroism...

Comics Studies is both starting to establish itself as an independent discipline (for example, with new postgraduate courses), and witnessing an intensifying questioning of its methodological and theoretical bases (and the dominance of models drawn from narratology, semiology and cultural studies). This makes it a crucial moment at which to evaluate what different disciplinary perspectives offer the study of comics. Some of the foundational texts of Comics Studies of the 1960s and 70s emerged...

Public feminism today travels by way of a technological update of collective speech acts of avowal and confession understood as already constituting political action — a practice familiar from 1970s feminism. And correspondingly, critiques of #MeToo have added little to the anti-feminist reactions of the 1970s. The talk argues that current activism warrants another look at two theoretical positions from the 1970s that related truth, speech, and sexuality — and were radically at odds with one...

12th Annual Germanic Graduate Student Association Conference at THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY January 24th – 25th 2020 Keynote Address by Professor Ervin Malakaj Since 1919, when women first secured the right to vote in Germany, they have gained increasing visibility in the public sphere. The proclamation of the Weimar Republic also ushered in increasing visibility for queer expression. This does not mean there were no setbacks: the 1933 destruction of Magnus Hirschfeld’s Institute for...

The idea for this seminar begins with a line from Sara Ahmed’s Living a Feminist Life (Duke University Press, 2017): “The repetition is the scene of feminist instruction.” These words announce a beginning to a process of “generating feminist ideas” while also generating “new ideas about feminism.” For Ahmed, feminist instruction involves understanding resonance as a starting point for critical work. Repetition is not simply a compulsion, or a re-enactment of an experience of...

The campus novel, an Anglo-American genre, having as its protagonists alternately students, teaching staff, and full professors, acts as a barometer measuring the state of the nation and education. While critically commenting on campus life, often spotlighting subversive behaviors and contesting the status quo, the campus novel portrays the individual’s struggle for personal advancement and definition of one’s own identity and values. It serves as a battleground for concepts and ideologies...

R. Howard Bloch’s 1991 monograph Medieval Misogyny and the Invention of Western Romantic Love is far from the most current entry in the scholarship on misogyny. Yet when Bloch notes the “repetitive monotony” of misogynist discourse and claims that its characteristic topoi have “hardly varied in almost two thousand years,” he troubles our sense of what it even means to be up-to-date on this subject (2). As a discourse, misogyny seems to pass unaltered, like a vampire, through the historical...
