Antigone’s Afterlife in Feminist Theory: Bonnie Honig im Gespräch mit Stefani Engelstein

Gespräch im Rahmen des virtuellen Kolloquiums »Antigone’s Worldings« am John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute der Duke University

Join us for a conversation between feminist political theorists, Bonnie Honig and Stefani Engelstein, as they reflect on their mutual explorations of Antigone through the more horizontal lenses of sibling logics and sororal actions, and the ways in which such a focus has opened new paths of inter-related research for them. How has their work on Antigone influenced their current research on the politics of refusal (Honig) and the entanglements of the organism (Engelstein)?
