Thinking Through Form: Meet the 2013 JWTC Participants
Melanie Boehi
Melanie Eva Boehi is a PhD student from the University of Basel, Switzerland. Her PhD dissertation is concerned with the
South African botanical complex in the 20th and 21st century. The dissertation examines how social life in cities is negotiated by defining relationships between
people and plants, how floral spaces can be approached as archives and flowers
as carriers of historical narratives.
The Johannesburg Workshop in Theory and Criticism is an independent platform for critical social analysis based at the University of the Witwatersrand. It is intended for intellectual stimulation, exchange and sustained interaction around the work of noted scholars in the humanities and social sciences, and the emerging fields of critical legal and science studies.
