In this episode, Dr. Hannah McCann, a Lecturer in Cultural Studies at the University of Melbourne and author of Queer Theory Now, joins us to read from Sara Ahmed‘s ‘Killing Joy: Feminism and the History of Happiness’ (2010).
Hannah introduces us to Ahmed’s re-reading and re-conceptualization of happiness, guides us through Ahmed’s use of etymology and wordplay, and helps us understand the powerful concepts of the ‘affect alien’ and ‘feminist killjoy’.
