On #worldphilosophyday, I am thinking about an unquotably long passage in #cavell 's Conditions Handsome and Unhandsome, when he underscores something I have never felt that I have fully understood, and then calls it "not a particular moral demand, but the condition of democratic morality."

Just a month left to submit abstracts for our #interdisciplinary #philosophy #conference on Stanley #Cavell and love! Featuring keynotes from King College London's Catherine Wheatley and Oxford's Rachel Malkin. https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/scapvc/film/news/eventsarchive/cavell/

Time for an #introduction – I've been occupied setting up https://zirk.us for #arts and #humanities people last week!

I'm a PhD student in #literature and #philosophy at the FU Berlin, writing on the status of "ethical" literary criticism after poststructuralism. I argue that Stanley #Cavell and New #Wittgenstein philosophers offer a better alternative than "neo-humanist" and "deconstructive" approaches.

When I'm done I hope to dedicate more time to creative #writing activities.

Posting this as a way to find scholars of queer theory, cinema, literature, race, and humanities. I see the lists but have not had time to figure everything out yet. If this sort of thing interests you, pls follow or like, or whatever you’re inclined to do, and i will follow you :). Thanks! #queertheory #blackstudies #Cavell #cinema #filmtheory #politicaltheory #feministtheory
