Intended learning outcomes

The Fatale literary salon builds upon the idea that the staging of a friendly space creates a particular condition for critical reflection. The form of the conversation, the salon, corresponds to the content, feminist literary spaces. Each salon is structured around a specific theme – A room of one’s own, Barricades, The White House, etc – and an attributed text, from which associations and spatial successions unfolds in different directions. Each salon takes place in different spaces related to the current theme.
