To Speak Is Never Neutral
ISBN: 9780415908139 / Angielski / Miękka / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. French speakers know that nouns have genders and that verbs have masculine and feminine endings. It's different for English speakers, an "ungendered" tongue that often hides the powerful gendering of every speech. If our society is rife with gender inequities, can the language we speak really be innocent? Speech is never neutral.
Feminist philosopher, linguist, and psychoanalyst Luce Irigaray is renowned for her analyses of language, studies that can be precise and poetic at the same time. In this volume of her work on language, linguistics, and psychoanalysis, she is concerned with... French speakers know that nouns have genders and that verbs have masculine and feminine endings.

Thinking the Difference
ISBN: 9780415908153 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Thinking The Difference, Luce Irigaray examines the ways in which women are failed by the cultural, political and legal institutions set up to protect and preserve, regardless of sex. Here Irigaray addresses the civil domain--where women's bodies, nature, space, symbolism and representation are appropriated by "the people of men"-- --and the need for concrete changes so that women may share in culture as women themselves, thereby gaining an as-yet-unfound full citizenship in the world.

Sacrificial Logics: Feminist Theory and the Critique of Identity
ISBN: 9780415908634 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text proposes a concept of identity which depends on accepting difference. Through readings of Nancy Chodorow, Judith Rose and Julia Kristeva, the book analyzes the relation of theories of self-identity to theories of women's identity, social identity and feminist solidarity. Drawing particularly on the work of Julia Kristeva, the book argues for a reformulation of self-identity as a capacity to participate in a social world, and sketches a model of a self-identity which depends on a capacity to accept non-identity, difference and connections to others.

Rhetorical Spaces: Essays on Gendered Locations
ISBN: 9780415909365 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The arguments in this book are informed at once by the moral-political implications of how knowledge is produced and circulated and by issues of gendered subjectivity. In their critical dimension, these lucid essays engage with the incapacity of the philosophical mainstream's dominant epistemologies to offer regulative principles that guide people in the epistemic projects that figure centrally in their lives. In its constructive dimension, Rhetorical Spaces focuses on developing productive, case-by-case...

Rhetorical Spaces : Essays on Gendered Locations
ISBN: 9780415909372 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text closes the gap between theory and practice by developing case-by-case analyses of knowing other people in situations where socio-political inequalities create patterns of knowledge, power and privilege. The forms of knowledge that are necessary to inform conceptions of care and empathy are examined. For instance, Code investigates how stereotyping violates the senses of self of the people being stereotyped. She reveals how gossip and story-telling can count as viable sources of knowledge and how testimony can be discounted and discredited in patterns of systematic incredulity. This...

The Impossibility of Motherhood: Feminism, Individualism and the Problem of Mothering
ISBN: 9780415910224 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An adequate analysis of experiences and situations specific to women, especially mothering, requires consideration of women's difference. A focus on women's difference, however, jeopardizes feminism's claims of women's equal individualist subjectivity, and risks recuperating the inequality and oppression of women, especially the view that all women should be mothers, want to be mothers, and are most happy being mothers. This book considers how thinkers including Simone de Beauvoir, Julia Kristeva, Nancy Choderow and Adrienne Rich struggle to negotiate this dilemma of difference in analyzing...

The Rejected Body: Feminist Philosophical Reflections on Disability
ISBN: 9780415910477 / Angielski / Miękka / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study applies a feminist philosophical perspective to theoretical and practical issues of physical disability, such as who should be identified as disabled, whether disability is biomedical, social or both, what causes disability and what could cure it, and whether scientific efforts to eliminate disabling physical conditions are morally justified. The book also argues that feminist theorizing has been skewed toward non-disabled experience, and that the knowledge of people with disabilities must be integrated into feminist ethics, feminist discussions of bodily life, and feminist...
