Since the appearance of her early-career bestseller Gender Trouble
in 1990, American philosopher Judith Butler is one of the most
influential thinkers in academia. Her work addresses numerous
socially pertinent topics such as gender normativity, political
speech, media representations of war, the democratic power of
assembling bodies, and the force of nonviolence. The volume Bodies
That Still Matter: Resonances of the Work of Judith Butler brings
together essays from scholars across academic disciplines who
apply, reflect on, and further Butler's ideas in their own
research. It includes a new essay by Butler herself, from which it
takes its title. Organized around four key themes in Butler's
scholarship - performativity, speech, precarity, and assembly - the
volume offers an excellent introduction to the contemporary
relevance of Butler's thinking, a multi-perspectival approach to
key topics of contemporary critical theory, and a testimony to the
vibrant interdisciplinary discourses characterizing much of today's
humanities research.
