Assessment Feedback

There is the start of some very good work developing here Bethan, well done.

You have conducted a thorough investigation of the ‘fear of a queer planet’ resource, and identified a range of significant points from the material (both video and supporting text) and used them to develop your ideas. The quality of your analysis is excellent and this work should provide a very good platform for you to build on from here. Well done.

You have begun to conduct some good independent research into relevant sources and examples, which is great to see, keep it up! Research is a crucial component of CTS work, and it will be very important to continue gathering more material to utilise within your discussion, develop your ideas and support the arguments you want to make.

Great to see you engaging with some of Butler’s texts, and you might find secondary sources like this useful to supplement your investigations:

(this is from the 'Routledge Critical Thinkers' series, which provides accessible overviews of the work of important theorists/philosophers, which can be handy when they have a massive body of work that you have to get your head around in a short space of time)

Here’s a similar one on Foucault also (if you are also interested in researching him further) https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/ual/detail.action?docID=1295015

You might also find this source useful (mentioned by Sam):
