Life narratives and fiction that represent experiences of
hermaphroditism and intersex are at the core of Michaela Koch's
study. The analyzed texts from the 19th to the early 21st century
are embedded within and contrasted with contemporary debates in
medicine, psychology, or activism to reveal the processes of
negotiation about the meaning of hermaphroditism and intersex. This
cultural studies-informed work challenges both strictly
essentialist and constructivist notions. It argues for a
differentiated perspective on intersex and hermaphrodite
experiences as historically contingent, fully embodied, and
nevertheless discursive subject positions.
