DERC Brown Bag Lunchtime Seminar: Beatriz Revelles Benavente (Universitat
de Barcelona)

Please join us for this DERC Brown Bag Lunchtime Seminar presented by
visiting scholar Beatriz Revelles Benavente. Bring along your lunch, all
welcome!

*The Handmaid’s Tale: fact or fiction? A feminist new materialist approach
to literature through time, affects and genealogies*

This paper has as its main aim developing a feminist new materialist
approach to literature and mass media in order to shed light on how
feminism is represented in literature and television. Beatriz Revelles
Benavente is interested in the ratings produced by the consumption of
literature and television and in this seminar will use these to consider
specificities in the time frame in between a novel written many years ago
(1985) and its airing on TV (2017). Beatriz will use *The Handmaid’s Tale*
in order to illustrate how nation, class and sexuality structure
present-past-future of the patriarchal discourse and how feminism is able
to permeate and multiplicate its dimensions in order to penetrate that
system with one of its main tools: mass media.
Using time (Barad, 2017), affects (Colman, 2010; Hickey-Moody, 2012) and
genealogies (van der Tuin, 2015), she pursues a twofold objective. On the
one hand, a monist literary object in which ontological scissions are not
produced between literary and media representation, but are moments of
resistance to the patriarchal order. On the other hand, it aims at drawing
a feminist affective politics through theory making and analysing how such
a politics are materialised in mainstream discourse.

*Beatriz Revelles Benavente* is a Postdoctoral scholar granted the Juan de
la Cierva in University of Barcelona (Spain) scholarship. Her doctoral
thesis was titled *Understanding Toni Morrison’s work in the Information
Society: Gender, Politics and Communication in the making*. Currently, for
her Postdoctoral research, she wants to develop this in the area of higher
education and pedagogy by finding feminist alternative ways to teach
literature and communication in the information society. She has been a
visiting scholar at Rutgers, Santa Cruz (California), Utrecht (Netherlands)
and Manchester (UK). Currently, she is a visiting scholar at RMIT's Digital
Ethnography Research Centre. In addition, she was a board member of
Atgender: European Asociation for Gender Research, Education and
Documentation from 2014 until 2017 and a core member of the management
committee of the COST Action IS1307: Networking European New Materialisms:
How matter comes to matter. Her most recent publication is *Teaching
Gender: Feminist Pedagogies and Responsibilities in Times of Political
Crisis*, a co-edited volume in Routledge.
