Alth ough desire cannot simply be divorced from these concerns\, it has its own autonomous conceptual core. It is linked to the violent emergence of subj ectivity and raises questions that go beyond and are more fundamental than those of individuality and its forms of enjoyment or identity. Subjectivi ty is not the same as individuality\, and desire in particular tends to br eak down the usual moorings and supports of identity. The relationship bet ween desire and fantasy also deserves closer consideration. The talk will focus on the disruptive\, destabilizing\, and even destructive nature of d esire\, without viewing these traits as simply and inherently “bad” or as something best avoided and suppressed.\n DTSTART:20230323T213000Z DTEND:20230323T233000Z LOCATION:Room W-215\, Arts Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0G5\, 853 ru e Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Sex in Theory Annual Lecture: Alenka Zupančič 'Desire' URL:/igsf/channels/event/sex-theory-annual-lecture-ale nka-zupancic-desire-345676 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
