The eight essays contained in Philosophical Feminism and Popular
Culture explore the portrayal of women and various philosophical
responses to that portrayal in contemporary post-civil rights
society. The essays examine visual, print, and performance media
stand-up comedy, movies, television, and a blockbuster trilogy of
novel. These philosophical feminist analyses of popular culture
consider the possibilities, both positive and negative, that
popular culture presents for articulating the structure of the
social and cultural practices in which gender matters, and for
changing these practices if and when they follow from, lead to, or
perpetuate discrimination on the basis of gender. The essays bring
feminist voices to the conversation about gender and attests to the
importance of feminist critique in what is sometimes claimed to be
a post-feminist era."
