Queer Difficulty in Art and Poetry

Rethinking the Sexed Body in Verse and Visual Culture

Herausgeber: Kim, Jongwoo Jeremy; Reed, Christopher

Beschreibung

Augmenting recent developments in theories of gender and sexuality, this anthology marks a compelling new phase in the scholarship on queer visual studies. Navigating notions of silence, misunderstanding, pleasure, and affects of phobia in artworks and texts, the authors in this volume propose new and surprising ways of understanding the difficulty-even failure-of the epistemology of the closet.
