About this talk
Homi Bhabha is the theorist whose work has provided us with the most enduring critical framework we have to account for the postcolonial condition. His conception of hybridity, of mimicry, of ambivalence, gave rise, in its extraordinary explanatory force, to a new way of seeing modernity. His keynote will address the crisis we face now in the Humanities as critics and educators – and explore the continued force of utopian thinking in the midst of that crisis. Tickets are £10 standard / £5 student & U25. This event is part of the Utopia Now! Conference. Discounts are available if you book this evening event at the same time as a conference day ticket for the same day, so you can enjoy the daytime conference and evening programme for £10 standard / £5 student & U25 in total.
