📚 Lecture: “Gender, Performed: The Social Construction of Identity”
🎤 Speaker: PhD Candidate, Alexandra Stamson
Explore the fundamental theory of social construction that underpins much of 21st-century philosophical thought in this illuminating lecture with Alexandra Stamson.
Focusing on one of the most significant human constructs—gender—this talk will elucidate Judith Butler’s theory of gender performativity and its relationship with social constructionism. By examining how we ritualize aspects of our identity like gender, Alexandra will raise important questions about our metaphysical concepts of self and challenge the beliefs and assumptions about gender that we may consciously or unconsciously hold.
Alexandra Stamson is an insightful lecturer whose work engages critically with contemporary philosophical discussions around identity and gender.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the complexities surrounding gender and identity with Alexandra Stamson!
