Biography

Susana Draper is a Professor of Comparative Literature at Princeton University, specializing in contemporary Latin American literature, arts, and philosophy, with a focus on political theory. Her research interests extend to themes such as literature and migration in the Americas, Latin American Marxisms, popular feminisms, and the memory of social movements. Draper has published several influential works, including 'Ciudad posletrada y tiempos lúmpenes: crítica cultural y nihilismo en la cultura de fin de siglo' and 'Aferlives Confinement: Spatial Transitions Post-Dictatorship Latin America'. Her latest publication, 'Libres y sin miedo. Horizontes feministas para construir otros sentidos de justicia', examines the poetics of justice and engages critically with the narratives of power and violence. Draper is currently working on a book of essays tentatively titled 'Embodied Imagination: Senses of Irreparability', exploring multimedia philosophical interventions that visualize bodies and their interdependent relations within communities. She is also involved in analyzing cultural productions that arise from survivors of violence, aiming to create spaces for listening and understanding marginalized voices.
