  Summer Reading School

Feminist Summer Reading School

2021 edition: TBA?

The Idea

The yearly event was created in 2017 by four women philosophy students who wanted to establish a space to read and discuss philosophy together. This event differs from traditional summer schools insofar as there are no lectures during the day. Instead, throughout the day, participants break out into small groups or individually to read. We then reconvene to discuss the material together. We invite three scholars to give an informal workshop on their work and personal experiences in philosophy, and to give a public evening lecture on the topic of the Summer School. 

2020 Update

The organizers of the Summer Reading School are now spread around the world in different PhD and MA programs (British Columbia, Pittsburgh, Cornell, CUNY, Kiel, Vienna). There was no Summer School in 2020, but we hope to bring women* philosophers back together in 2021. 

For now something inspiring, written by Ravit Dotan (PhD at Berkley) who participated in 2017:
