Produktinformationen zu „Patterns of Dissonance (ePub)“
This book is a brilliant and timely analysis of the complex issues
raised by the relation between women and philosophy. It offers a
critical account of a wide range of contemporary philosophical and
feminist texts and it develops this account into an original
project of critical feminist thought.
Braidotti examines contemporary French philosophy as practised
by men such as Foucault and Derrida, showing that they rely on a
notion of 'the feminine' in order to undermine classical thought,
which bears no direct relevance to the historical experience of
women.
Braidotti then looks at the attempts of contemporary feminist
thinkers in Europe and the United States to show the gendered
nature of discursive power games. She discusses the contributions
of Luce Irigaray and many other feminist theorists to the
understanding of sexual difference and of its implications for
philosophy and politics. This book will be of interest to students
and researchers in women's studies, feminist theory, social theory,
cultural studies, philosophy and literature, and anyone interested
in contemporary feminism and the relation between feminist theory,
post-structuralism and psychoanalysis.
