Dr. Kathrin
Bartha-Mitchell and Clara Hebel (M.A.) are running an Environmental Humanities slow
reading group on Astrida Neimanis' Bodies of Water: Posthuman Feminist
Phenomenology this summer term.
What it is
The format
of this group follows the principles of slow, emergent, and collective
scholarship. We want to try out a new format: We will (silently) read a section
of the text while we are gathered in one room, and then discuss it together.
How to join
This means
that no prior preparation is necessary, nor is a registration; if you're
interested just come along! Neimanis' text is available for free online.

information here.
