On the other hand, some essays note how a postmodern aesthetic, with its valorization of difference, sexual plurality, and gender blurring, assists lesbian...

ISBN: 9780231096614 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-20 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780231106917 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-20 dni roboczych.

William Leap has brought together contributions from such fields as...

Fashioning Sapphism : The Origins of a Modern English Lesbian Culture
ISBN: 9780231110075 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych.

Yet despite unreserved agreement on the importance of this cultural moment, previous studies often reductively distort our reading of the formation of early twentieth-century lesbian identity, either by neglecting to examine in detail the developments leading up to the ban or by...

ISBN: 9780231110334 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. "Queer theory," asserts Linda Garber, "alternately buries and vilifies lesbian feminism, missing its valuable insights and ignoring its rich contributions." Rejecting the either/or choice between lesbianism and queer theory, she favors an inclusive approach that defies current factionalism. In an eloquent challenge to the privileging of queer theory in the academy, Garber calls for recognition of the historical--and intellectually significant--role of lesbian poets as theorists of lesbian identity and activism. The connections, Garber shows, are most clearly seen when looking at the...
