"French Feminist Theory" offers an introduction to the key concepts
and themes in French feminist thought, both the materialist and the
linguistic/psychoanalytic traditions. These are explored through
the work of a wide range of theorists. The book outlines the
philosophical and political diversity of French feminism, setting
developments in the field in the particular cultural and social
contexts in which they have emerged and unfolded. The principal
areas covered are: ongoing debates on the cultural construction and
definition of sexual and gendered identities; the relationship
between subjectivity and language; the roles played by both private
and public institutions in the shaping of sexual relations; the
issue of embodiment; and the relationship between gender, sexuality
and race. Finally, the book traces the connections between French
and Anglo-American feminist approaches and methodologies.
