Amaleena Damle

Becoming of the Body (eBook, PDF)

Contemporary Women's Writing in French

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Following a long tradition of objectification, 20th-century French feminism often sought to liberate the female body from the confines of patriarchal logos and to inscribe its rhythms in writing. Amaleena Damle addresses questions of bodies, boundaries and philosophical discourses by exploring the intersections between a range of contemporary philosophers and authors on the subject of contemporary female corporeality and transformation.
