Germaine Greer is one of the most enduring and influential figures
of the second wave of the women's movement. The Female Eunuch
(1970) is one of second-wave feminism's most widely recognised
publications and its author has come to embody and indeed expand
our understanding of second-wave feminism in a way that few others
have. Yet, while Greer's public visibility never seems to wane, her
writings and her politics have failed to attract the kind of
sustained critical engagement they warrant. This volume represents
the first collection of essays to examine Greer, her politics, her
writing, and her status as a feminist celebrity. The essays in this
collection cover The Female Eunuch (1970), Greer's public rivalry
with Arianna Stassinopoulos, her time in America, her ideas and
politics, and her styling as feminist fashion icon. Many essays
include new insights drawn from previously unseen material in the
recently launched Germaine Greer Archive at the University of
Melbourne, Australia. This book was originally published as a
Special Issue of Australian Feminist Studies.
