Queer Phenomenology of Spirit by Gaygel

[@gem_stones]

thank you for this! this is so timely! I'm very firmly in the sociological camp as opposed to philosophy but I plan on using Ahmed's work for my thesis and did find it a little daunting :) I've subscribed!

Incredible video as always

[@gotterdammerung6088]

Any advice on background for reading Queer Phenomenology? My education has been mostly analytic, excepting personal studies of Foucault and Butler.

[@johannesbaptistlotz9650]

Great video! I loved it. Ahmed's text is one that has been on my to-read list for a while. It sounds like she is critical of Husserl. Whereas Husserl "brackets" the "natural attitude" -- one with culturally-determined values and preferences -- towards pure, unmediated appearances, Ahmed wants to interrogate these background assumptions. It reminds me of Iris Marion Young (of what little I know of her!) and how Young was influenced by Heidegger and Merlau-Ponty. Would you say that Ahmed belongs to the hermeneutical strand of phenomenology? Like Paul Ricœur, Gadamer, and Heidegger.

Amazing video, thanks for helping me understand! Is this from her book Queer Phenomenology or is this mentioned elsewhere?

[@ailtonsilva3314]

[@nilesloughlin6845]

Are there any Marxist critiques of this text? I find that a lot of Ahmed’s broad concepts serve as great additions to the foundation that phenomenology sets up for how to consider perspectives and interactions with objects in the world, but that the more conclusive details they suggest break down when carried to their terminal implications. When considering a materialist perspective of how consciousness projects itself onto the material world, the idea that objects in themselves possess innate and subjective qualities seems to break down to me, as these qualities would be more or less the subjective projections of an individual onto the conditions that determine material objects in themselves - even if subjective perspectives do influence objects created by humans to some degree.

David you beautiful, beautiful man. Lets talk about something important, how do you shape those flawless eyebrows? I need to learn to do that.

[@TheoryPhilosophy]

Of course! Get it done at a salon, and then you'll know how they should be shaped. Fairly easy to do it yourself after that :)

[@JJ-oz3lf]

you are good at explaining in a clear and straight forward way :) all those philosophers should take you as example :D
