About this episode
As twilight embraces the world in its quietude, we delve into the eloquent tapestry of thought woven by Judith Butler, exploring the fluid landscapes of gender, identity, and the power of language in shaping our social norms. Through her seminal works, from Gender Trouble to Excitable Speech, we trace the contours of human interaction and the performative nature of gender, challenging the very foundations upon which societal expectations are built. Each page turns like leaves in a gentle breeze, revealing the dynamic interplay between our bodies and the words we use to define them. Join us in a contemplative journey through the philosophical realms where theory and poetry converge, inviting a deeper understanding of the selves we perform and the lives we lead.This episode is hosted by Sophia Wilson.
