In the mid-1980s, film director Marco Bellocchio and renegade
psychoanalyst Massimo Fagioli cowrote "The Devil in the Flesh," a
politically and sexually charged film illustrating some of
Fagioli's controversial theories. Echoing the anti-Lacanian
sentiment popularized by Gilles Deleuze, the film is perhaps best
remembered for a scene in which the character Andrea misreads a
section of the famous Greek tragedy" Antigone." But this scene has
itself been frequently misread, opening up the text to questions of
feminism, politics, and the representation of Antigone--a figure
frequently used and abused in feminist politics. Displaying
considerable analytic depth, "Misreading Postmodern Antigone"
considers these divergent readings and what they have to tell us
about contemporary society.
