SUMMARY:Kyla Schuller: "The Biopolitics of Feeling: Race\, Sex\, & Science in the Nineteenth Century"
DESCRIPTION:Kyla Schuller is an Assistant Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at Rutgers University\, New Brunswick and an External Faculty Fellow at the Stanford Humanities Center (2017-2018). She has previously held fellowships from ACLS and the UC Humanities Research Institute and a visiting scholar position at UC Berkeley. Schuller investigates the intersections between race\, gender\, sexuality\, and the sciences in U.S. culture\, and is particularly interested in ideas about how the body interacts with its environment from the periods both before and after classical genetics\, i.e. the 19th century and the present. Overall\, she examines how science and culture function as systems of knowledge that share methods and sources in common\, even as they rhetorically claim distinct spheres. \nEvent Photos:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors.

SUMMARY:Jennifer Doyle: "Harassment & the Unravelling of the Queer Commons"
DESCRIPTION:This talk will attempt to speak to the difficulty of this moment for queer/feminist theorists—for teachers\, students and staff who live and work with harassment\, with forms of misogyny that are so embedded in professional life as\, in some ways\, to feel synonymous with it. This work is a return to a scene many of us have never left\, but which critical formations tend to represent as having passed: super-sexual political writing calling for openness against an intolerable future. \nJennifer Doyle is a Professor of English at UC Riverside. \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. The sessions consist of a 40-45 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center provides coffee\, tea\, and cookies. \nAll Center for Cultural Studies events are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Saein Park: "Dancing Waste of History: Lumpen in Heine\, Marx\, & Benjamin"
DESCRIPTION:Saein Park’s current project argues that the discourses of Lumpen record the changing demarcations of disposable lives during the emergence of European industrial modernity. She researches 19th- and early-20th-century German-language literature\, political philosophy\, and critical theory\, focusing on translation and reception studies\, theories of waste\, and plant studies. \nSaein Park is a Visiting Assistant Professor at UC Santa Cruz. \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. The sessions consist of a 40-45 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center provides coffee\, tea\, and cookies. \nAll Center for Cultural Studies events are free and open to the public.
