Butler offers a brilliant reworking of the body examining how the power of heterosexual hegemony forms the \"matter\" of bodies sex and gender. Butler argues that power operates to constrain sex from the start delimiting what counts as a viable sex. She clarifies the notion of \"performativity\" introduced in Gender Trouble and via bold readings of Plato Irigaray Lacan and Freud explores the meaning of a citational politics. She also draws on documentary and literature with compelling interpretations of the film Paris is Burning Nella Larsen's Passing and short stories by Willa Cather.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Bodies That Matter On The Discursive Limits Of Sex\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Butler Judith (University Of California Berkeley Usa)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780415610155\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 226 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 4\/4\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Routledge Classics\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Gay \u0026amp; Lesbian Studies","brand":"Butler Judith (University Of California Berkeley Usa)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49595402092849,"sku":"IN-G-9780415610155","price":39.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780415610155.jpg?v=1754881709","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780415610155-bodies-that-matter-on-the-discursive-limits-of-sex","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
