About Laura Hengehold

Laura Hengehold received her Ph.D. from Loyola University of Chicago in 2000. She teaches and researches on political philosophy and feminist philosophy, using perspectives influenced by Continental philosophy and psychoanalysis. Many of her essays explore the relationship between language and the lived experience of embodiment. She is especially intrigued by the way in which political conflict over the right to speak in different situations shapes women's experience of their own bodies as active forces or passive obstacles to joy.
Laura Hengehold is Director of the French and Francophone Studies Interdisciplinary Program and Associate Director for Research in the Baker-NordCenter for the Humanities. She is a contributing member to the Women and Gender Studies Program and serves on their Advisory Committee.
