\nTopic: Voicing Feminist Concerns
\nThe aim of the course is to explore and discuss various ways of articulating and affirming the voice as a powerful agency of social change. We theorize voice as women\u2019s existence, women\u2019s theory and women\u2019s art are interwoven and constituted by voice.
\nVoice can be silenced and silence itself; it can be absent and multiple, a feminist scream and artistic expression, noise and excitement, oppressed and revolutionary, a voice of the Other and a voice in favour of Otherness, a voice of women\u2019s subversion and transformation. All of them express feminist concerns and are also an expression of feminist concerns.
\nAmong the issues we would like to address are those of the female authorial voice and those that witness the paradoxical relation between voice and the body in the constitution of female subjectivity. Beyond Derrida\u2019s idea of phonocentrism, we are interested in \u201cpolitics of the voice\u201d in its fulfilment. Feminist voice challenges the responsibility of the diversity of voices in their multiplicities.
\nWe are interested in who is naming and expressing feminist concerns with consequences for ethics and politics as much as for literature and music, media and virtual spaces.
\nEligibility:

All postgraduate students interested in the topic may apply to participate, although the course targets young scholars and postgraduate students with special interests in women\u2019s and gender studies, transnational studies, postcolonialism and anthropology.
