David Chandler (University of Westminster) introducing Giorgio Agamben, The Use of Bodies (2016).
About the group
The Materialisms Reading Group organises regular meetings to discuss a range of posthuman, new materialist, speculative realist, actor-network and object-oriented understandings that foreground the materiality of life and its governance. This is not a lecture course so we will be mixing up the texts and approaching key or interesting readings in an informal and flexible way, with a brief introduction by one of the group. Reading group meetings have been running since May 2013, they are open to all and take place Thursdays 6.30–8pm. Please see Professor David Chandler's website for further information.
Location
Westminster Forum, 5th Floor, 32–38 Wells Street, London, W1T 3UW.
