Annotation

English

Postqualitative research has emerged as one label for a feminist practice of doing research that considers methods and concepts not as stable entities that are simply applied but as proposals to work and think with, and to adapt and respond to. This course explores what the generativity, implications, and challenges of feminist methodological practices mean in and for the doing of research, particularly when it is concerned with marginal and embodied knowledges, and forms of precarity and vulnerability. How do research practices allow differences to emerge and unfold in ways that break out of binary oppositions? How do affects and the senses (the visual, auditory, tactile and kinaesthetic), as much as failure, silence and forgetting contribute to and reorient our research and writing? The course is addressed to students who currently do and write research. It offers short case studies and concepts (such as silence, walking-with, failure, unlearning) to assists research practice. At the heart of the course are workshops where student present a short piece of their own research and writing-in-progress on a moment they find disconcerting, where they feel stuck or surprised that we collectively discuss and respond to.
