FEARY: A Theory Reading Group

  • Glasgow Zine Library 636 Cathcart Road Glasgow, Scotland, G42 8AA United Kingdom (map)

Please note: this event will take place in person at Glasgow Zine Library.

Study of critical theory has long been confined to the academy, with a lack of mainstream engagement outside of universities and a frequent density often rendering it inaccessible.

FEARY: A Theory Reading Group sets out to democratise access to theoretical material - in particular, texts concerned with feminism and gender - through monthly reading groups at Glasgow Zine Library. The group aims to be a welcoming and supportive space in which to discuss and demystify theory and take a relatively informal approach to our meetings.

Over the course of our groups, FEARY hopes to traverse and encounter many of the vast - and often contradictory - strains of feminist and gender theory. From month to month, we'll read diversely and widely, covering 'classics' as well as underground texts.

All are welcome. Down with academic elitism!
