Summary: | An accessible introduction to the relationship between feminism and deconstruction. In this book, Diane Elam unravels: the contemporary relevance of setting feminism and deconstruction; how we can still understand and talk about the materiality of women's bodies; whether gender can be distinguished from sex; and the place of ethics and political action in the light of postmodernist theory. Feminism and Deconstruction aims to serve as a reading source for anyone who needs a no-nonsense but stimulating guide through one of the mazes of contemporary theory. Elam has also published Romancing the Postmodern (Routledge, 1992). |
