Inhoud
This course examines, through gender and postcolonial theories, the politics and the practices of (self)representations, with a focus on the erotics, passion and empowerment, but also on separation, violence, and pain. In the process, it presents different feminist approaches to the complex interplay of affect, emotion, and feeling, focusing on the emergence of new subjectivities and communities.

This course is for students in the MA Gender Studies and GEMMA; students from other MA programmes should check with the course coordinator before enrolling. The entrance requirements for Exchange Students will be checked by International Office and the Programme coordinator. You do not have to contact the Programme coordinator by yourself.
