Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Organisers, I would like to draw your attention to this very exciting event:
19th June - 21st June 2017
Adriana Cavarero has been at the forefront of continental feminist philosophy for the past four decades. She works at the interstices of sexual difference theory, post-structuralism, political philosophy, literature and classical thought. Her books have addressed a range of themes, including feminist political philosophy narrativity, the voice and vocality and contemporary forms of violence. Common to all of Cavarero’s work is a concern with uniqueness, an insistence on the vulnerability of the human condition and a careful critique of western metaphysics.
This conference also marks the publication of her most recent text, Inclinations: A Critique of Rectitude (Stanford University Press, 2016).
We welcome participants at the conference who are familiar with Cavarero's work. If you would be interested attending the conference please e-mail
There are a limited number of places at this conference.
