  1. Allegories of the Bioethical: Reading J.M. Coetzee’s Diary of a Bad Year.Stuart J. Murray - 2014 - Journal of Medical Humanities 35 (3):321-334.
    This essay reads J.M. Coetzee’s novel, Diary of a Bad Year, as an occasion to problematize contemporary bioethical paradigms. Coetzee’s rhetorical strategies are analyzed to better understand the “scene of address” within which ethical claims can be voiced. Drawing on Foucault’s Socratic understanding of ethics as the self’s relation to itself, self-relation is explored through the rhetorical figure of catachresis. The essay ultimately argues that the ethical voice emerges when the terms—terms by which I relate to myself, to others, to (...)

  • The Limits of Dignity at the Intersection of Autonomy, Identity and Affect: A Cautionary Tale from the Supreme Court of Canada.Caroline Hodes - 2020 - Feminist Legal Studies 28 (1):61-86.
    This survey of the Supreme Court of Canada’s pivotal anti-discrimination rulings over a 30-year period assesses the extent to which the shifting nature of the grounds approach and the Court’s conceptions of dignity together form part of a gendered system of enunciation at the intersection of autonomy, identity and affect. This article is written as a corrective to some of the author’s early optimism about the possibilities that dignity may offer in the context of constitutional equality rights cases and as (...)

  • Rethinking dementia as a queer way of life and as ‘crip possibility’: A critique of the concept of person in person‐centredness.Thomas Foth & Annette Leibing - 2022 - Nursing Philosophy 23 (1).
    The concept of person‐centeredness has become in many instances the standard of health care that humanises services and ensures that the patient/client is at the centre of care delivery. Rejecting a purely biomedical explanation of dementia that led to a loss of self, personhood in dementia could be maintained through social interaction and communication. In this article, we use the insights of queer theory to contribute to our current understanding of the care of those with dementia. We critically discuss the (...)

  • Obscene Demands.Sarah Burgess - 2013 - Philosophy and Rhetoric 46 (3):351-359.
    The contemporary American political landscape is littered with talk of apology. Throughout the 2012 presidential campaign, both camps sparred over when, why, and to whom apologies should be made. The most striking clash occurred in July 2012. The Obama camp ran a series of campaign advertisements alleging that the then presumptive Republican nominee had in fact remained at Bain Capitol in a leadership role longer than he had claimed, bolstering their characterization of Romney as a businessman whose business was not (...)

  • Exposing the Ruins of Law: The Rhetorical Contours of Recognition's Demand.Sarah K. Burgess - 2015 - Philosophy and Rhetoric 48 (4):516-535.
    What makes identity politics a significant departure from earlier, pre-identitarian forms of the politics of recognition is its demand for recognition on the basis of the very grounds on which recognition has previously been denied: it is qua women, qua blacks, qua lesbians that groups demand recognition.... The demand is not for inclusion within the fold of “universal humankind,” on the basis of shared human attributes; nor is it for respect “in spite of” one’s differences. Rather, what is demanded is (...)

  • Between the Desire for Law and the Law of Desire: #MeToo and the Cost of Telling the Truth Today.Sarah K. Burgess - 2018 - Philosophy and Rhetoric 51 (4):342-367.
    The anti-patriarchy movement is going to undo ten thousand years of recorded history…. You watch. The time has come. Women are gonna take charge of society.I think [#MeToo] will have staying power because people, and not only women, men as well as women, realize how wrong the behavior was and how it subordinated women. So we shall see, but my prediction is that it is here to stay.As the story is told, #MeToo arrived in a kairotic moment. Jodi Kantor and (...)

  • Plinius exclusus.Eulogio Baeza-Angulo - 2017 - Philologus: Zeitschrift für Antike Literatur Und Ihre Rezeption 161 (2):292-318.
    This article offers a philological commentary on the ‘Calpurnia Cycle’ present within the letters composed by Pliny the Younger, concentrating particularly on the analysis of Ep. 7.5. The author behaves like a true elegiac lover and a loving husband, since the letters that he writes to his wife Calpurnia can be set in the context of the elegiac genre, given the lexicon and motifs present in them. Calpurnia is transformed into a scripta puella not in the sense of a metaphorical (...)
