    Queering Counterpublics and Intimate Citizenship: On the Queer Legacy of Ken Plummer’s Scholarship

    No full text
    Ken Plummer, a pioneer of LGBTIA+ studies in the UK and Europe, died on 4 November 2022. His work has been influential and inspiring and making possible a critical engagement with non-heterosexual ways of life in a climate shaped by social and institutional homophobia, lesbophobia, and biphobia. This paper evaluates the legacy of Ken’s work for critical scholarship in gender and sexuality studies, and specifically for queer studies. Ken’s relationship to queer studies was highly ambivalent, evidenced in his consistent criticism of queer theory, originating from his firm commitment to symbolic interactionism and his primary interest in material, fleshy embodiment, rather than the theoretical abstraction he associated with queer theory. The chapter argues that this ambivalence notwithstanding, Ken’s work carries much potential for a critically engaged queer scholarship. Through a queer reading of Ken’s concepts of counter-publics and intimate citizenship, I show that his radical emphasis on the body sparks a truly ‘queer’ potential for considering sexualities in the public sphere. Comparing Michael Warner’s and Ken Plummer’s theorisation of counterpublicity, I argue that despite his distrust in queer poststructuralist abstraction and because of his assertive endorsement of fleshy embodiment at the heart of social theorising, his work paradoxically invites a stimulus for queering citizenship and public sphere theories (including his own). Rather than simply claiming Ken as a ‘queer theorist’, the chapter engages in theoretical boundary work (following a method proposed by Clare Hemmings) in exploring 2 the epistemological effects of reading Ken through a queer lens, demonstrating the queer legacy of his way of theorising

    Ken Liu and Nick Admussen: the full conversation

    No full text
    Video of full conversation.Ken Liu - Award winning Science fiction author and translator Ken Liu sat down with East Asia Program's Nick Admussen to discuss the state of translation and science fiction originating from China. His talk titled, "Betrayal With Integrity: Conformance and Estrangement in Translating Chinse Science Fiction" is a one-hour lecture that discusses the origin of Chinese science fiction through translation of Western works. It proceeds to explore his own translation of the Hugo-winning novel, The Three-Body Problem trilogy, by Liu Cixin and its reception by readers in the West. Ken prepares the audience with some background on translation theory and the modern conception of translation as a performance in cultural negotiation and applies these academic concepts to genre literature in particular. He concludes the talk by extending the theoretical framework of "translation" to his debut novel, "The Grace of Kings", which melds Western and Chinse epic traditions by transposing a foundational narrative from one culture into another.Cornell East Asia Program1_4y1twcc
