Yuna Visentin studied at the École normale supérieure, Paris, is an associate professor of literature, and hosts and facilitates feminist writing workshops. After several years teaching and researching the relationship between literature and Jewish philosophy, she published a novel and an essay on the reproduction of systemic oppression in schools. She published her third book in 2024, Spiritualités radicales: Rites et traditions pour réparer le monde with Éditions Divergences. In this essay, prefaced by Myriam Bahaffou, she examines the emancipatory political reconfigurations made possible by relationships with the invisible, exploring in particular her experience of the Jewish tradition. Her independent research is ongoing, focusing on radical and anarchist Jewish traditions, Jewish feminisms, and ecofeminist and decolonial thought and struggles—and everything that circulates between these worlds.
