Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick was one of the most significant literary
theorists of the last forty years and a key figure in contemporary
queer theory. In this engaging and inspiring guide, Jason
Edwards:
- introduces and explains key terms such as affects, the first
person, homosocialities, and queer taxonomies, performativities and
cusps
- considers Sedgwick's poetry and textile art alongside her
theoretical texts
- encourages a personal as well as an academic response to
Sedgwick's work, suggesting how life-changing it can be
- offers detailed suggestions for further reading
Written in an accessible and direct style, Edwards indicates the
impact that Sedgwick's work continues to have on writers, readers,
and literary and cultural theory today.
