Continental Feminism Reader (Paperback, New)

In an era of backlash and supposed stagnation, feminist philosophers are still providing fresh and challenging perspectives - you just have to know where to look. Continental feminist theory continues to address pressing questions of equality and difference, identity and subjectivity. Modern thinkers such as Judith Butler, Kelly Oliver and Drucilla Cornell present strikingly new perspectives on sex, gender, sexual politics and the various social apparatuses that underlie gender inequality. Yet their theories are not always well received. This work is a response to the marginalization of these modern thinkers. In this volume, Ann J. Cahill and Jennifer Hansen collect the most groundbreaking work of the theorists. In their introductory pieces, Cahill and Hansen translate the often esoteric and mystifying work of the women in Continental philosophy to those outside the field and outside academia. With these essays, Continental Feminism Reader begins the process of reanimating feminist politics through the critical tool of its contributors.
