Rahul Rao‘s new book The Psychic Lives of Statues: Reckoning with the Rubble of Empire is presented on March 28th, at 6 pm, at the Tigre de Papel bookstore, in Lisbon, with a discussion with the author, historian Sanjay Seth and art historian Afonso Dias Ramos, IHA – NOVA FCSH / IN2PAST researcher.

The Psychic Lives of Statues is ‘an exploration of global statue controversies’, summarises publisher Pluto Press, with Rao taking us ‘on a journey through South Africa, England, the US, Ghana, India, Australia, and Scotland, revealing how statue controversies have dramatically rearranged the canon of anticolonial political thought.’

Rahul Rao is a Reader in International Political Thought in the School of International Relations at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, where Sanjay Seth is a Professor of Postcolonial Theory and Political Thought. Organised by IN2PAST, this public get-together is part of Tigre de Papel’s March programming. Admission is free, subject to capacity.

Rahul Rao and Sanjay Seth are travelling to Portugal as part of a joint initiative between IN2PAST Associate Laboratory and the University of St Andrews to prepare future international projects. This initiative, which took Afonso Dias Ramos and Mariana Pinto dos Santos, also a researcher at IHA – NOVA FCSH / IN2PAST, to the Scottish university at the end of January, is supported by the Research Innovation Scotland International Collaboration Fund, which ‘aims to promote connectivity between Scotland and European research partners with the aim of strengthening existing, and seeding future, research relationships and creating paths to European research funding’.
