by Markus Riedl

New Fellowship Opportunities at Remarque Institute View this email in your browser <https://mailchi.mp/647e2e3db6f1/new-fellowship-opportunities-at-remarque-in…> Remarque Institute at NYU /announces our fellowship opportunities for the upcoming academic year./ We are delighted to announce a new initiative at Remarque: *Technology, the Environment, and the Future of Europe (TEFE)*. It involves new, funded fellowships; new programming; a podcast; and conferences. TEFE, funded by Open Society Foundations, will host four fellows per term: one fellowship is forgraduate students <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…>, three forfaculty or non-academics. <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> /*Please also read on for exciting updates to our already established Visiting Fellows Program.*/ *Technology, the Environment, and the Future of Europe* Doctoral Fellows <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> will receive a fellowship stipend of $4750 per month, an office at the Remarque Institute, visiting scholar status to use NYU’s libraries, databases, facilities, and relevant university privileges. Doctoral students must be currently enrolled in a degree-granting program. Visiting Fellows <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> will receive a fellowship stipend of $4500 per month, a studio apartment at no cost (or a housing stipend), an office at the Remarque Institute, visiting scholar status to use NYU’s libraries, databases, facilities, and relevant university privileges. Applications from non-academics for the Visiting Fellowships are encouraged. The Remarque Institute is a vibrant intellectual space and the TEFE initiative aims to allow each semester’s cohort of scholars to work both alone and together, building on their distinctive disciplines and shared interests. Fellows are expected to be in residence throughout the semester; to participate in all relevant Remarque events; and to take part in and contribute to the community the Institute seeks to foster. We seek scholars of the highest caliber who embody the diversity of the United States as well as the global society in which we live. We strongly encourage applications from women, racial and ethnic minorities, and other individuals who are under-represented in the profession, across color, creed, race, ethnic and national origin, physical ability, gender, and sexual identity, or any other legally protected basis. NYU affirms the value of differing perspectives on the world as we strive to build the strongest possible university with the widest reach. To learn more about our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, please read here: https://www.nyu.edu/faculty/faculty-diversity-and-inclusion.html <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> EOE/Affirmative Action/Minorities/Females/Vet/Disabled/Sexual Orientation/Gender Identity More Information <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…> *Remarque Visiting Fellowship Program* We also welcome applicants to our *Remarque Visiting Fellowship Program.* Remarque Visiting Fellowships <https://gmail.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=071cfc6bc18365bf2aa8d00cf&…>, as always, come with apartments and travel and for the first time also come with a stipend for those who demonstrate need. These Fellowships are intended for scholars on sabbatical leave at their home institutions or with extramural funding or other outside support, though for the 2024-25 academic year, the Institute is able to provide a monthly stipend of $2,000 for junior scholars visiting without sabbatical or extramural funding of their own. All Fellows receive cost-free housing in an NYU studio apartment and round-trip travel to and from New York, and are provided with a private office and modest administrative support during their residency at the Institute. At NYU, Remarque visiting fellows have access to NYU library and other university resources and privileges. We are particularly interested in applications from individuals whose work will be significantly enabled by a period of residency at the Institute. Normally, fellowship applicants must have a PhD in hand at the time of the start date of their fellowship at the Remarque Institute. While our housing is intended for visiting scholars, we do offer a limited number of fellowships per semester to those currently residing in New York, which include office space, NYU affiliation, and some administrative support.

Invitation Alexis Shotwell: "Working or playing at freedom", October 20th, 6pm, Hörsaal 2G (and online)

by Ralf Gisinger

Dear Colleagues, The Reading Circle of the Research Group "Poststructuralism, Gender Theory, Psychoanalysis" at the University of Vienna cordially invites you to the next public event: Alexis Shotwell (Carleton University Ottawa): "Working or playing at freedom" Friday, October 20th 2023, 6-8pm, Hörsaal 2G (NIG), Department of Philosophy (and online) Lecture and Discussion Abstract: Ursula Le Guin thinks of freedom as an ongoing process, a practice rather than an achievement, something to be worked on rather than won. While our freedom can be stolen from us, in her work, it cannot be given to us: we each must manifest it through our unique, specific lives. Such freedom, she argues, is only really available in societies organized around justice and mutual aid. It does not fully exist yet. Perhaps along the way to social relations not organized to benefit some and oppress many, practicing freedom can open more possibilities for us individually and for our collective worlds. Because the work of creating such freedom is ongoing, Le Guin and others conceive of freedom as something we build in an ongoing way - we never stop working on it. The worry about such a accounts: They may reinforce ableist and productivist normative commitments that bolster capitalist value structures. In this paper, I elaborate those worries, and think with Le Guin and others about the connections among freedom, the idea that we each have worth in virtue of our uniqueness, and the promise of idle play as a form of creating beauty. Alexis Shotwell is a professor at Carleton University, on unceded Algonquin territory. She is the co-investigator for the AIDS Activist History Project, and author of _Knowing Otherwise: Race, Gender, and Implicit Understanding _and _Against Purity: Living Ethically in Compromised Times_. Register for online participation: ralf.gisinger(a)univie.ac.at Since 2021 the Reading Circle PS-GT-PA includes public events additionally to the monthly readings. Lectures and workshops have been held with Brian Massumi, Erin Manning, Avital Ronell, Didier Debaise and Shomo Choudhury.
