For women, for lesbians and gays, for African Americans, for
Asians, Native Americans, or any other self-identified and
-identifying group, who can speak? Who has the authority to speak
for these groups? Is there genuinely such a thing as "objectivity,"
or can only members of these groups speak, finally, for themselves?
And who has the authority to decide who has the authority? This
collection examines how theory and criticism are complicated by
multiple perspectives in an increasingly multicultural society and
faces head on the difficult question of what qualifies a critic to
speak from or about a particular position. In different formats and
from different perspectives from various disciplines, the
contributors to this volume analytically and innovatively work
together to define the problems and capture the contradictions and
tensions inherent in the issues of authority, epistemology, and
discourse.
