SUMMARY:Guest Lecture - Kristin Käuper: „What Can We Learn about Sexual Orientation from Asexuality?“
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture in the Seminar “Feminist Perspectives on Sexuality” – A seminar offered within the Teaching Area on Heterogeneity – Lecturer: Ana Rodrigues\nKristin Käuper (University of Leeds): The Invisible Orientation: What Can We Learn about Sexual Orientation fromAsexuality? \nAbout the Speaker: \nKristin Käuper studied at the University of Paderborn and completed her Master’s dissertation at the University of St Andrews on Asexuality and Sexual Orientation. She is currently pursuing her PhD at the Centre for Love\, Sex\, and Relationships at the University of Leeds\, where sheresearches the philosophical dimensions of asexuality and aromanticism. Kristin is also the founder and organiser of the Aromanticism& Asexuality Research Network. \nAbout the Lecture: \nWhat does it actually mean to have a sexual orientation? Philosophical theories often define sexual orientation in termsof desire or behaviour – yet this approach proves insufficientonce we take asexuality seriously as a sexual orientation. Asexual people experience little or no sexual attraction toothers\, revealing that desire\, behaviour\, and attraction are not the same thing. This talk explores how asexuality challengesour understanding of sexual orientation – and argues that weshould instead view it as a disposition to experience sexual attraction. \nThis perspective has far-reaching implications for how we: \n\nconceptualise sexuality\,\ndistinguish between sexual\, romantic\, and platonicattraction\,\nand determine the place these forms of attraction occupyin society.\n\n\nALL INTERESTED PERSONS ARE WARMLY INVITED TO ATTEND!\n_______________________ \nGerman Version: \nGastvortrag im Seminar „Feministische Perspektiven auf Sexualität“ – Ein Seminarangebot im Lehrbereich Heterogenität – Leitung: Ana Rodrigues\nKristin Käuper (University of Leeds): Die unsichtbare Orientierung: Was können wir von Asexualität über sexuelle Orientierung lernen? \nÜber die Vortragende: \nKristin Käuper hat an der Universität Paderborn studiert und ihre Masterarbeit an der University of St Andrews zum Thema Asexualität und sexuelle Orientierung verfasst. Derzeit promoviert sie am Centre for Love\, Sex\, and Relationships der University of Leeds zu den philosophischen Dimensionen von Asexualität und Aromantik. Zudem ist sie Gründerin und Organisatorin des Aromanticism& Asexuality Research Networks. \nÜber den Vortrag: \nWas bedeutet es eigentlich\, eine sexuelle Orientierung zu haben? Philosophische Theorien definieren sie meist über Begehren oder Verhalten – doch diese Sichtweise greift zu kurz\, wenn wir Asexualität als sexuelle Orientierung ernst nehmen. Asexuelle Menschen empfinden wenig\, bis keine sexuelle Anziehung zu anderen und machen sichtbar\, dass Begehren\, Verhalten und Anziehung nicht identisch sind. Der Vortrag zeigt\, wie Asexualität unser Verständnis sexueller Orientierung herausfordert – und warum wir sie besser als Disposition zur Erfahrung sexueller Anziehung verstehen sollten. \nDies hat weitreichende Konsequenzen dafür\, \n\nwie wir Sexualität konzeptualisieren\,\nwie wir sexuelle\, romantische und platonische Anziehung voneinander abgrenzen\,\nund welchen gesellschaftlichen Stellenwert wir ihnen zuweisen.\n\n\nALLE INTERESSIERTEN SIND WILLKOMMEN!

SUMMARY:Anniversary of Émilie Du Châtelet - Online Event
DESCRIPTION:Du Châtelet’s Eclectic Laboratory\n\nL’Expérience est le bâton que la nature a donné à nous autres aveugles\, pour nousconduire dans nos recherches ~ Du Châtelet\, Institutions de physique\, Avant-propos \n\nTo celebrate Émilie du Châtelet’s 319th birthday\, the Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists invites you to take a deep dive into the empirical foundations of her Institutions de physique. The event is organised by Ruth E. Hagengruber and Pierpaolo Betti. \nWhile Du Châtelet’s engagement with major figures like Descartes\, Newton\, and Leibniz is well documented\, her work also draws extensively on a wide range of lesser-known experimentalists of her time. This event shifts the focus to the “eclectic laboratory” embedded in the Institutions and the remarkable variety of experiments she references. The program will feature an introductory talk by Pierpaolo Betti\, with responses by Clara Carus and Christian Henkel\, followed by a discussion with all participants. Join us as we investigate how Du Châtelet intagrates these findings to construct and support her natural philosophy. \nRegistration for participation is required: https://indico.uni-paderborn.de/event/150/
