REANIMATING HERESIES

Reanimating Heresies will bring together digital humanists, periodical studies scholars, historians, social movement researchers, art historians, and other scholars interested to think through and with Heresies: A Feminist Publication on Art and Politics. Our goal is to respond to scholarly questions and methodological challenges around archives and digital research practices. We are inspired by recent feminist engagement with archives, and by including what British sociologist Rachel Thomson describes as “the re-use of materials from the past” (2022). By encouraging cross-generational and interdisciplinary scholars, artists, and activists to reflect collectively about Heresies, we explore major questions about the recent feminist past and its relationship to the contemporary activist and scholarly moment.
