“The Trajectory of One’s Life: A Practice Approach” – A Digital Guest Lecture with Prof. Theodore R. Schatzki

• Flyer Guest Lecture with Theodore R. Schatzki May 11th

On May 11th the Cooperative Research Group Doing Transitions is hosting a guest lecture with Prof. Theodore R. Schatzki (University of Kentucky/Lancaster University) on the topic of “The Trajectory of One’s Life: A Practice Approach”.

The lecture draws on theories of practices to analyze trajectories of a life of three sorts: space-time paths, sequences of action, and omnipresent significative arcs from past to future.  After exploring the peregrination of lives through bundles of practices and material arrangements, it concludes by differentiating life trajectories from chains of activity, which are responsible for changes in social life.  Arrays of life trajectories and of activity chains intersect, and they ink, pass through, and are coeval with practice-arrangement bundles.

The lecture is public and will take place via Zoom. For attendance please contact us by the 9th of May at the latest at:  anmeldung_doingtransitions(at)uni-frankfurt.de
