本課程為一學分之國際學者密集共授課程。「酷兒認識論」旨在探索酷兒理論如何與不同知識領域交織、辯證與創新，進而擴展對世界的理解方法。課程首先從「酷兒與海」出發，探討酷兒理論如何解構自然與環境的二元常模，並連結生態批評與萬物關懷；課程接著延伸至「酷兒與新物質主義」，思考人類與非人、物質與能動性的糾纏關係。後半段課程轉向社會科學與醫療場域，從「酷兒與行為科學研究」切入，檢視科學方法與知識生產中對性／別的規範建構，再至「酷兒與生物醫療典範」，反思醫學體制如何形塑、規訓甚至病理化性與身體。透過這四個面向的連貫討論，課程強調酷兒不僅是一種身分或欲望的描述，更是一種挑戰知識框架、重思能動性與倫理關係的認識論方法。
This is a one-credit intensive course jointly taught by international scholars. Queer Epistemologies aims to investigate how queer theory interweaves with, problematizes, and innovates across diverse domains of knowledge, thereby expanding epistemic approaches to the world. The course begins with “Queer and Sea,” examining how queer theory unsettles binary and heteronormative understandings of nature and the environment while engaging ecocriticism and more-than-human forms of care. It then moves to “Queer and New Materialisms," considering the entanglements of humans and nonhumans and the agency, vitality, and materiality of things. In the second half, the focus shifts to the social sciences and clinical domains: “Queer and Behavioral Science Research” critically interrogates how scientific methods and knowledge production normativize sex and gender, and “Queer and Biomedical Paradigms” reflects on how medical institutions shape, regulate, and at times pathologize sexuality and the body. Through sustained engagement with these four axes, the course emphasizes that queerness is not merely a descriptor of identity or desire but an epistemic stance that challenges prevailing knowledge frameworks and reconceptualizes questions of agency and ethical relation.
