Bodies of Knowledge Working Group—The Human Colony: Symbiogenesis and Sympoiesis in the Works of Konstantin Merezhkovskii and Alexander Bogdanov

The Humanities Council sponsors the Bodies of Knowledge Working Group whose purpose is to engage faculty, staff, and graduate students in questions around embodiment from a wide range of viewpoints including the medical humanities, disability studies, art history and aesthetics, and environmental studies in the Anthropocene. In particular, the group hopes to foster intellectual partnerships with those within and beyond the humanities who share a critical interest in exploring and expanding the multidisciplinary conversations surrounding bodies, their environs, and their representations.

This semester, Bodies of Knowledge will hold its meeting via Zoom. The first, on October 7 at noon, is
