>>>WHY DOES SPECULATION MATTER IN FEMINIST THEORY?
experience set 1
Tuesday 13 Sept – The many meanings of Opposition: being fluid
• from now on assume that BEFORE EVERY CLASS you examine the website for new stuff and read links and prepare BEFORE EVERY CLASS your web assignments and your readings. Come to class ready to check in with our MAKING attendance portraits.
• remember you will be meeting in your book circle and putting together a report on this material at the beginning of class, so bring notes you made while preparing so the collective discussion and report will be easier and more fun!
• WEB ASSIGNMENT: read this Keating link and then search yourself for additional information: bring that into class to share: http://www.twu.edu/ws/keating.asp
• EXAMINE KEATING BOOK AS OBJECT CAREFULLY: what can you tell about it from its production, drawings, arrangement, TOC and what else?
• READ: Keating: Giving Thanks & Introduction (xiii -29)
What comparisons can you make between Transformation Now & Take Back the Economy? What effects do these two objects want to have on the world? How do you know?
Think about the class in terms of Experience Sets. This one asks the question Why Does Speculation Matter in Feminist Theory? How would Keating respond to that question? How would the authors of Take Back the Economy, given what you have read and also their website?
