You are invited to join us for the first semester of the Queer Theory Reading Group. The first meeting will be Thursday March 17, 2022.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
Our intention is to gain familiarity with Queer Theory by reading foundational texts of the movement. Through our discussions we will attempt to answer questions like What is Queer Theory? What does Queer Theory have to do with literature? Is Queer Theory applicable to my work? How can I use Queer Theory in my writing?<\/p>\n
This semester we will begin by reading the first chapter of\u00a0Queer Theory Now<\/i>(2020) by Hannah McCann & Whitney Monaghan, called \u201cDefining Queer Theory.\u201d With that chapter as a foundation, we will undertake readings of works by Adrian Rich, Judith Butler, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, and others.<\/p>\n
We welcome anyone who is Queer Theory curious, from any department\u2014undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty members.<\/p>\n
