This book appraises the relationship between contemporary feminism
and Julia Kristeva, a major figure in Continental thought. It
addresses the conflicting range of feminist responses to Kristeva's
key ideas and Kristeva's equally conflicting as well as ambiguous
position vis-a-vis feminism.
Schippers argues that this complex relationship can only be
understood by positioning Kristeva along the fissures and fault
lines which run through feminism. By attending to feminism's
internal debates and disputes, and addressing the philosophical
commitments and attachments held by Kristeva's critics, the book
clarifies the diverse Kristeva reception within feminism and
illuminates how her ideas trouble contemporary feminist
thought.
And despite Kristeva's fundamental ambiguity towards all matters
feminist, Schippers makes a case for Kristeva's important
contribution to a feminist project which is sympathetic towards her
account of fluid subjectivity and her critique of identity
politics. In doing so, the author advances the scholarly
understanding of Kristeva and of contemporary feminist thought.
