Biography

Susana Draper is a Professor of Comparative Literature at Princeton University. Her academic work focuses on the intersections of contemporary Latin American literature, arts, and philosophy. Draper's research interests include political theory, literature's relationship to migration within the Americas, the various forms of Latin American Marxism, popular feminisms, and the memory of social movements. She has authored several significant works in the field, including 'Ciudad posletrada y tiempos lúmpenes: crítica cultural y nihilismo en la cultura de fin de siglo' (2009), 'Aferlives Confinement: Spatial Transitions Post-Dictatorship Latin America' (2012), and 'México 1968: experimentos de la libertad, constelaciones de la democracia' (2018). Draper draws on figures like Audre Lorde to explore themes of justice, language, and power in her latest work 'Libres y sin miedo. Horizontes feministas para construir otros sentidos de justicia', which critically examines narratives related to violence and justice in society. She is currently working on a book of essays titled 'Embodied Imagination: Senses of Irreparability', focusing on multimedia philosophical interventions that visualize complex interrelations within communities.
