TheScuSpeaks 3334 Report post Posted March 10, 2012 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1527-2001.2012.01280.x/abstract Right now you can get get the whole article off their website, without needing an academic access to Hypatia. Abstract: "This article utilizes the work of Judith Butler in order to chart a queer and feminist animal studies, an animal studies that celebrates our shared embodied finitude. Butler's commentary on other animals remains dispersed and fragmented throughout books, lectures, and interviews over the course of the last several years. This work is critically synthesized in conjunction with her work on mourning and precarious lives. By developing an anti-anthropocentric understanding of mourning and precarious lives, this article hopes to create ontological, ethical, and political concepts that resist the violence of the present. In so doing, the article contrasts Butler's understanding of precarious life with Giorgio Agamben's understanding of bare life in order to conceive of precariousness as constitutive of social reality. This intellectual labor lays the groundwork for understanding mourning the lives of other animals as a political act that produces new communities, rather than as an individuating and isolating emotion." 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScuSpeaks 3334 Report post Posted March 10, 2012 Btw, this would be good for those of you running Anthro. Also, many of you might be interested in my discussion of differentiating Butler's notion of precarious life to Agamben's notion of bare life. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScuSpeaks 3334 Report post Posted July 9, 2012 So, the whole issue, including my article, is unlocked. There is also a good article in there on roadkill and policy, for people looking toward putting together an aff for next year's HS topic on infrastructure and anthropocentrism. Here is the link http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/hypa.2012.27.issue-3/issuetoc 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
