We are particu- larly grateful to George Miller at Oxford University Press for encouraging us to produce this Reader and for keeping a kindly eye on our progress, including being very understanding when the pressures of academic life delayed the pro- ject at certain stages. The process of producing this volume was made much more feasible by the efficiency with which OUP handled the complex task of getting all the necessary permissions for the various extracts used. The Li- braries at the London School of Economics, the University of Warwick, and the University of Southampton were helpful in allowing us to track down some of the more obscure sources. We have also been helped in putting this volume together by the support of our respective universities and departments, and by Guida Crowley, Managing Editor of Ethnic and Racial Studies. We are also grate- ful for the help, advice, and encouragement one or other of us received at vari- ous stages of the project from colleagues across the globe, including Les Back, Chetan Bhatt, Clive Harris, Michael Keith, John Rex, Liza Schuster, John Stone, and Howard Winant, and the stimulation provided by editing together the jour- nal Ethnic and Racial Studies. Finally, we are grateful to Shelley Cox at OUP for seeing the book through production, and to Edwin Pritchard for his meticulous copy-editing.

The calumniators and traducers of the Negro are to be found, mainly, among two classes. The first and most relentless are those who have done them the greatest injury, by being instrumental in their enslavement and consequent degradation. They de- light to descant upon the "natural inferiority" of the blacks, and claim that we were destined only for a servile condition, entitled neither to liberty nor the legitimate pursuit of happiness. The second class are those who are ignorant of the characteristics of the race, and are the mere echoes of the first.

  • Reading Clarice Lispector in Contemporary Italian Feminist Philosophy
    Points of Contact: Reading Clarice Lispector in Contemporary Italian Feminist Philosophy Mariana Nóbrega Fraga Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Mariana Nóbrega Fraga All rights reserved ABSTRACT: Points of Contact: Reading Clarice Lispector in Contemporary Italian Feminist Philosophy Mariana Nóbrega Fraga This project follows a thread of citations of the work of Brazilian author Clarice Lispector found in the philosophical feminist texts of four European thinkers: Hélène Cixous, Luisa Muraro, Adriana Cavarero, and Rosi Braidotti. I explore the intersection of material feminisms, Latin American decolonial feminism, and sexual difference theory differentially and multiply across contexts. I revisit histories of women and texts - French, Italian and Brazilian - that are multiply and differentially marginalized in the current Western feminist narrative framework - in order to create sources of alternative knowledge and create an opportunity for something new to emerge symbio-creatively from these points of contact. Chapter One covers the genesis of European feminist approaches to Lispector’s oeuvre in France, the impassioned reading by Hélène Cixous of Lispector’s work, and also provides vital counter-memory, decolonial feminist stories on Brazilian and Latin American feminisms which have been left out of the dominant Anglo-American/Western feminist historical narrative. Chapter Two will focus on the arrival in Italy of Lispector’s texts, Luisa Muraro and the Diotima women’s feminist philosophy group’s readings. Chapter Three then covers Adriana Cavarero, as well as her split from said Diotima group. Finally, Chapter Four brings us to Rosi Braidotti, from her early texts on Lispector to present theoretical horizons.

  • 1 Chapter 4: Time Matters: Faces, Externalised Knowledge and Transcendence BARBARA ADAM and SANDRA KEMP, Cardiff University, An
    Chapter 4: Time Matters: Faces, Externalised Knowledge and Transcendence BARBARA ADAM and SANDRA KEMP, Cardiff University, and Imperial College and Victoria and Albert Museum Abstract Prehistoric predecessors are known to us through their enduring creations. As externalised knowledge, their artefacts and art open for us windows on their relation to the time matters of impermanence, finitude and the realm beyond the lived present. Creating and re-presenting the impermanent world in solid form means the reality thus created appears as if it were immutable. As such it facilitates reflective knowledge and with it time-binding and time- distanciation practices that far exceed the capacity of spoken symbolic language. New modes of thought and expression are made possible through the visual. Importantly, it opens up the realm beyond the present and allows for free movement in time. This paper focuses on the human face as an exemplar of such externalised knowledge in relation to temporality and to notions of time and space as integral. Animated, the created face looks back at its maker. Endowed with life it becomes an interlocutor, another putative living entity through which reality can be probed and the temporal givens transcended. Through an investigation of the face in relation to these key temporal challenges the paper critically discusses existing approaches to time and history. Introduction [INSERT FIGURE 1 HERE] Some 400 carved stone spheres, measuring around seven centimeters in diameter, have been found in the Aberdeen area and the Orkney Islands of Scotland. They vary in intricacy, decorative detail and hardness of stone, with the largest number carved of granite, the most permanent and enduring material available at the time.

  • Futuredesigned Symposium Innovation in Design Education
    FutureDesignEd Symposium PRESENTATION Innovation in Design Education Innovation in Education by Design University of Bologna Design Programmes 30 September 2017 Opificio Golinelli, Bologna Presentation by Flaviano Celaschi Full Professor of Design, Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna, Deputy Dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture, Event Organising Scientific Committee. Distinguished Rector, esteemed guests from the Golinelli Foundation, dear friends and colleagues, welcome. Your presence at this small but for us important scientific and cultural event is an honour both for us and for our small School of Design in this great University. As scholars of design, we want to focus attention on our work as educators and trainers because we are passionate about what we do and never complacent about how we do it. Here today we will attempt to investigate two phenomena: 1. How is design education changing? 2. How is education in general changing thanks to the contributions from the fields of design knowledge and the cultures of design? To address these questions we turned to those working in the field and asked them to identify the most interesting cases and from here we attempted to capture the instant and learn from the experience so as to improve our understanding of education: in universities and schools, in business and the community. The research model and method we have set up is small and there is room for improvement. The important thing is that we have confidence in it and that through its continual improvement it can grow to become a permanent monitoring centre. We have absolutely no intention of confusing it with a PRIZE or a RANKING or with a CELEBRATION of the best.
