Focusing on the representation of women, Nancy Spero's artwork features mythological, cinematic, and suffering female figures. Drawing inspiration from both classical and modern sources, she creates collages and imprints that showcase contemporary goddesses on elongated, papyrus-like friezes, transforming museum walls into dynamic narratives.
Alice Jardine charts the territories and landscapes of contemporary French thought, focusing on such concepts as "woman" and "the feminine," and relating them to the problem of modernity. Interdisciplinary in her approach, she confronts and addresses important psychoanalytic, philosophical, and fictional texts that are largely the work of male writers.
The first substantial attempt to produce a dialogue between feminists and their male allies, this collection of essays assesses the benefits or disadvantages of male participation in feminism. This edition first published in 1987. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
