Section Title:
Queer Feminist Methods
Section Info:
Queer Feminist Methods. Drawing on foundational to contemporary scholarship that addresses the construction of sex and sexuality, this course considers how feminist and queer theories shape what we study and how we study it. With an eye toward building critical research methods for non-normative knowledge making, the class traces the evolving political and intellectual commitments formulated in and by these two fields, often in articulation with other considerations of power and difference (e.g., race, class, ability, age); asking, How do queer and feminist theories advise us to navigate erasure and recovery, abjection and inclusion, evidence and speculation, identity and intersectionality, cultural critique and counterpublic activism? The course engages work from a variety of disciplines to forge a finer sensibility to what historically and presently constitutes queer feminist work, but it uses recent writing studies scholarship as a springboard for the class to create their own queer feminist methodological priorities. No prior knowledge of queer or feminist studies required, students from all disciplines welcome.
