  • Draft details of the Guest Professor seminars are now posted on the site; topics covered include postcolonial politics and writing, the neoliberal subject, Deleuze and politics, amateur diplomacy, Derrida and Gadamer, images and aesthetics, psychoanalysis and resistance, researching war, and the art of representation.
  • A draft timetable is also posted, showing the schedule for the week, including one-to-one research surgeries with Guest Professors, roundtables, presentations from participants, social events, and (optional!) yoga sessions.

The deadline for the early bird rate is 31 January 2016, so book now to secure your place at this reduced rate! Places are limited to 30 participants to ensure a relaxed, productive and friendly atmosphere.
