The changing face of feminist discourse as reflected by the career
of one of its preeminent scholars
"Figures of Resistance" brings together the unpublished lectures
and little-seen essays of internationally renowned theorist Teresa
de Lauretis, spanning over twenty years of her finest work. Thirty
years after the height of feminist theory, this collection invites
us to reflect on the history of feminism and take a hard look at
where it stands today. Selected essays include "Sexual Indifference
and Lesbian Representation," "The Lure of the Mannish Lesbian,"
"Eccentric Subjects," "Habit Changes," "The Intractability of
Desire," and the unpublished article "Figures of Resistance." An
introduction from feminist film scholar Patricia White provides an
overview of the development of de Lauretis's thought and of
feminist theory over past decades.
