Second-wave feminism's mission was to end the blanket silence
shrouding rape and bring it to public attention. Now feminist
critics must confront a different issue. In "Public Rape" Tanya
Horeck considers the public investment in images of rape and the
figure of the raped woman. Introducing the idea of "public rape",
Horeck looks at how images of rape serve as cultural fantasies of
sexual, racial and class difference. Looking at rape in real life
as well as in literature and films such as "The Accused" and "Boys
Don't Cry", Horek reveals how representations of rape raise vital
questions about the relationship between reality and fantasy, and
between violence and spectacle.
