Since the 1990 publication of Gender Trouble, Judith Butler has had
a profound influence on how we understand gender and sexuality,
corporeal politics, and political action both within and outside
the academy. This collection, which considers not only Gender
Trouble but also Bodies That Matter, Excitable Speech, and The
Psychic Life of Power, attests to the enormous impact Butler's work
has had across disciplines. In analyzing Butler's theories, the
contributors demonstrate their relevance to a wide range of topics
and fields, including activism, archaeology, film, literature,
pedagogy, and theory. Included is a two-part interview with Judith
Butler herself, in which she responds to questions about queer
theory, the relationship between her work and that of other gender
theorists, and the political impact of her ideas. In addition to
the editors, contributors include Edwina Barvosa-Carter, Robert
Alan Brookey, Kirsten Campbell, Angela Failler, Belinda Johnston,
Rosemary A. Joyce, Vicki Kirby, Diane Helene Miller, Mena Mitrano,
Elizabeth M. Perry, Frederick S. Roden, and Natalie Wilson.
