Thinking Under Bombing: Feminism, Gender, Queer

Summer school

The "Greifswalder Ukrainicum" is an international summer school on science, culture and language of Ukraine, organised by the Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg Greifswald and the University of Greifswald. It is funded by the Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach-Stiftung, Essen, Germany.

"Thinking Under Bombing: Feminism, Gender, Queer" is set to deal with the most urgent of matters. The war challenges both regular and academic life in a way never imagined. Violence and displacement affect every gender alike, but not every gender in the same way. During our Ukrainicum, we will approach Ukrainian Gender and Queer Studies under the aspect of war and related themes. We will also discuss the contribution of these fields of studies to critical thinking about the war.All attendees will get a chance to work intensively for two weeks in Greifswald, start learning or polishing their Ukrainian in one of our three language courses and have the chance to network with other young academics and scholars.

XXVI. Greifswalder Ukrainicum’s keynote is Cynthia Enloe (Clark University).
