Telling Flesh

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the intersection of social sciences and feminist theory, Vicki Kirby examines the division between nature and culture, particularly through postmodern views on the body. She critiques how this separation limits understanding of corporeality, drawing on the works of notable theorists like Jane Gallop, Judith Butler, and Drucilla Cornell, as well as recent cyber-criticism. By highlighting the recurring nature/culture divide in their analyses, Kirby provides a compelling reassessment of dualism and its implications.
