OTHERWARE: Oxana Timofeeva «Solar Politics»

Under the topic "OTHERWARE," the ECAM Graduate School presents a new public lecture series that deepens the discussions on othering processes and practices by tracing different histories, beyond dominant modes of storytelling and beyond anthropocentric dialogues.

Oxana Timofeeva, philosopher who addressed the "animal question" as a way to dismantle the ahistorical perspective on animals and power inclinations of anthropocentrism, will talk about her most recent research into Solar Politics. Timofeeva is Sc.D., a Professor at “Stasis” Center for Philosophy at the European University at St. Petersburg, leading researcher at Tyumen State University, member of the artistic collective "Chto Delat?" ("What is to be done?"), deputy editor of the journal "Stasis", and the author of books History of Animals (London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2018; Maastricht: Jan van Eyck, 2012; trans. into Russian, Turkish, and Slovenian), Introduction to the Erotic Philosophy of Georges Bataille (Moscow: New Literary Observer, 2009), How to Love a Homeland (Moscow, syg.ma, 2020; Cairo: Kayfa ta, 2020; trans. into Arabic), and other writings.
