SUMMARY:FPST Seminar – Rebecca Earle (Warwick) [online only]
DESCRIPTION:Title: A Very Large Peruvian Painting\nAbstract: This talk is in some ways about a missing object in search of a satisfying narrative frame. More concretely\, it’s about a painting. The painting was made in Lima in 1791\, and was intended to be sent to King Charles IV of Spain\, but\, as a result of a series of unfortunate occurrences\, ended up in Britain. Where it is now we have no idea. Perhaps it no longer exists at all. So in part this talk is about how to write the history of something that perhaps doesn’t exist anymore.

SUMMARY:FPST Reading Group – Midnight Sun
DESCRIPTION:You are cordially invited to join us on a cover-to-cover reading of Meyer’s 2020 Midnight Sun. The meeting will be online\, and the session will be around 60 minutes. The plan is to discuss the book’s first five chapters\, as well as set up a plan and dates for our next sessions. If you want to sing up get in touch with the organisers: Naomi Sutton Kachani (ns234@st-andrews.ac.uk) and Sebastián Stuart Betanzos (sasb1@st-andrews.ac.uk). \nFull invite: You are cordially invited to join us on a cover-to-cover reading of Meyer’s 2020 Midnight Sun. This is the much-anticipated reimagining of Twilight (2005)\, by the same author. In this book\, Meyer retells the early story of the meeting between Bella Swan and Edward Cullen through a shift from the former’s limited human gaze to the latter’s supernatural psychic gaze. This switch in narration radically widens the perspectival scope of the story by placing us within the thoughts of a mind with unmediated access to all Other minds around him\, except that of Swan. What implications does this shift have for how we interpret the moral\, aesthetic\, and cultural value of the Twilight saga as a whole?

SUMMARY:FPST Seminar – Tommy Curry (Edinburgh)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Phallicism as Racism against the Male Target: Dehumanization\, Misandric Aggression\, and the Splitting of Gender. \nAbstract: Much of the current theory explaining the vulnerability of racialized outgroup males focus on death. In Adam Jones’s (2000) account of gendercide as well as Jim Sidanius’s (1999) theory of Social Dominance\, outgroup or subordinate males become specifically targeted by dominant male groups for death. This targeting of subordinate males is interpreted as a specific sexual violence as genocides in particular\, but many low level conflicts\, kill civilian battle age men from 15-55 first. But what function then does the rape of subordinate outgroup men serve in these conflicts? This paper will argue that the rape of racialized males in slavery\, Jim Crow\, the Armenian Genocide\, Gaza\, and the Holocaust indicate that sexual violence has always been an integral part of patriarchal societies’ domination of lesser men. Rather than understanding the rape these men as an exception\, this paper will argue that the rape of racialized males\, and their simultaneous construction as the rapist is (and has been) the most visible and dominant process of racial-outgroup male subjugation throughout the 20th century.

SUMMARY:FPST Seminar – Viviane Fairbank (St. Andrews and Stirling) (online)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Some Thoughts on Victimhood and Feminism \nAbstract: In her book Conflict Is Not Abuse (2016)\, Sarah Schulman argues that\, in many domains of public and private life\, false accusations of harm allow (groups of) people to conflate “conflict\,” which is quotidian\, and “abuse\,” which is more problematic but infrequent. The general tendency to mis-identify difficult situations as instances of “abuse” leads to an inability to mediate social problems\, and thus prevents the realization of progressive politics. This\, she argues\, is a reason for socially-minded feminists and activists to reconsider their relationship to so-called victimhood culture. \nI understand Schulman’s book as a distinctive contribution to the genre of “anti-victimhood” literature that has recently gained prominence\, including among some feminist (and many other anti-feminist) scholars. In this talk\, I argue that Schulman’s arguments rely on assumptions about the nature of abuse and victimhood that deserve to be made explicit—notably\, the assumptions that (1) there is always a fact of the matter about who\, in any one situation\, is the victim\, and (2) that this fact is always available to be uncovered by rational agents. I argue that these assumptions do not stand up to empirical or philosophical scrutiny. Feminist philosophers should consequently find ways of thinking about victimhood that allow us to learn from the best version of Schulman’s ideas while nevertheless rejecting such assumptions.
