[csaa-forum] Invitation: *** DELEUZE AND GENDER WORKING GROUP ***

[Anna Hickey-Moody]

Much has been written about Deleuze and Feminism. Feminist scholarship has both invested in critique’s of Deleuze's conception of the woman and also taken up aspects of Deleuze's work to advance Feminist agendas. Less has been written about a Deleuze and Masculinity, although work in this space is emerging. Building on these fairly contemporary lineages, this theory 'working group' explores what a theory of gender informed by Deleuze's philosophy, and his writing with Guattari, would look like. The group will meet weekly for 90 minutes and is open to academics, practitioners and postgraduate students. A proposed list of initial readings is included below and is open to negotiation. Group will be convened by Anna Hickey-Moody and Timothy Laurie and will run from 12.30 - 2pm on Fridays at the University of Sydney in the SOPHI Kevin Lee Room. First meeting is Friday February 17.
