Reading group: Kant meets 鈥淪ex, Love, & Gender鈥�
S2.85

Reading group: Kant meets 鈥淪ex, Love, & Gender鈥�

We cordially invite you to a reading group centred on Helga Varden鈥檚 widely acclaimed book 鈥淪ex, Love, and Gender: A Kantian Theory鈥� (2020). In it, Varden proposes an ambitious assessment of Kant鈥檚 moral, legal, and political philosophy, claiming it can provide a robust framework for intimate life as well as a progressive account of gender identity, bodily autonomy, and sexual rights. To do so, Varden insists, we must, of course, also 鈥渙vercome Kant鈥檚 own mistakes鈥� and 鈥渋dentify and overcome Kant鈥檚 own binary positions and, consequently, his cisism, sexism, and heterosexism鈥�.

We鈥檒l read selected chapters from Varden鈥檚 book alongside other relevant articles, starting with Mari Mikkola鈥檚 2011 paper, 鈥淜ant on Moral Agency and Women鈥檚 Nature鈥�. (If you have suggestions or requests, do share!) Just a quick note: we鈥檙e no experts on Kant鈥檚 practical philosophy – and you don鈥檛 need to be either. We鈥檙e simply hoping for some refreshing insights on this confrontation between Kant and 鈥淪ex, Love, and Gender鈥� (without diving into the primary texts together).

Meetings will take place every other Tuesday at 5 pm, starting on 29 April. If you鈥檙e interested, please email map.philosophy@warwick.ac.uk or scan the QR code on the poster to join the WhatsApp group!
