Join us for a special LBGT+ History Month event on research methods in and beyond queer studies.
Queering tends to reject stable conceptions of sexual and gender identity in favour of deep thinking about methods, methodologies, theories and epistemologies. Queer perspectives provide the opportunity to adapt and reclaim research methods that may reflect a heteronormative, privileged or hegemonic bias. These creative and transformative possibilities can also enable a critical reflexive engagement with understanding and theorising queer lives and politics. This discussion brings together researchers in literature, film, theatre and digital art to explore the ways in which queering can enrich contemporary scholarship in the arts and beyond, and the role of trans in queer/ing research.
The event will be followed by a drinks reception. This LGBT+ History Month event is supported by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) and GENDER.ED.
