- Description
- In this book David Stamos wants to question whether and to what extent evolutionary biology shines light on the big questions debated in the humanities and social sciences.The main theme in the book is the debate between evolutionary explanations and what has come to be known as the Standard Social Science Model. This model is a way of looking at human nature that is commonly found in sociology, behaviorism in psychology, cultural anthropology, Marxism, women's studies, and gay studies. Stamos examines topics of race, sex, gender, the nature of language, religion, ethics, knowledge, consciousness and ultimately, the meaning of life from different perspectives.

- Description
- This essay argues that language and its political implications are even more complex then Butler concedes. The author contests the conflation of ' writing' with culture and argues that the question of Nature has not been provoked in Butler' s analyses but answered and dismissed much too quickly. The author suggests that Nature is literate.

- Description
- Bruce brings together a multidisciplinary body of scholarship on girls' psychosocial development, composition theory, and postmodern feminist theories to illuminate the vital function of writing in students' lives. The young women at Aspen Grove High School, whose women's studies class was the object of study, write to analyse and challenge powerful social ideologies that narrowly construct their lives. Although this book foregrounds writing in a high school women's studies classroom, Bruce presents an argument for the importance of writing in all disciplines, along with examples to guide teachers in creating empowering opportunities for their own students at all grade levels.

- Description
- Driven by an unfulfilled desire for the unattainable, ultimately indefinable Other, the protagonists of the novels and stories of acclaimed Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector (1920-1977) exemplify and humanize many of the issues central to poststructuralist thought, from the nature of language, truth, and meaning to the unstable relationships between language, being, and reality. In this book, Earl Fitz demonstrates that, in turn, poststructuralism offers important and revealing insights into all aspects of Lispector's writing, including her style, sense of structure, characters, themes, and socio-political conscience. .Fitz draws on Lispector's entire oeuvre—novels, stories, cronicas, and children's literature—to argue that her writing consistently reflects the basic tenets of poststructuralist theory. He shows how Lispector's characters struggle over and humanize poststructuralist dilemmas and how their essential sense of being is deeply dependent on a shifting, and typically transgressive, sense of desire and sexuality.

- Description
- Overview of different theoretical positions on equity issues in schools, covering all sectors of education from early years to higher education: curriculum subjects: methodological and theoretical perspectives: and gender identities in education. The first section, Gender Theory and Methodology, outlines the various (feminist) perspectives on researching and exploring gender and education. The section critiques the notion of gender as a category in educational research and considers recent trends. Section two, Gender and Education, considers the impact of gender upon the opportunities and experiences of pupils/students, teachers, and other adults in the different sectors of education. It also includes a chapter on single-sex schooling. Section three, Gender and School Subjects, comprises chapters that cover gender issues within the teaching and learning of particular school subjects (for example, maths, literacy, and science). It also includes topics such as sex education and assessment. Section four, Gender, Identity and Educational Sites, addresses up-to-date issues which have a long history in terms of explorations into gender and educational opportunities. More recent inclusions in the debates, such as disability, sexuality, and masculinities are discussed alongside the more traditional concerns of 'race', social class, and femininities. The final section, Working in Schools and Colleges, illuminates the working lives of teachers and academics and covers topics such as school culture, career progression and development, and the gendered identities of professionals within educational institutions.

- Description
- In this bookVicki Kirby contends that some of the most provocative aspects of deconstruction have yet to be explored. Deconstruction’s implications have been curtailed by the assumption that issues of textuality and representation are specific to the domain of culture. Revisiting Derrida’s claim that there is “no outside of text,” Kirby argues that theories of cultural construction developed since the linguistic turn have inadvertently reproduced the very binaries they intended to question, such as those between nature and culture, matter and ideation, and fact and value. Through new readings of Derrida, Husserl, Saussure, Butler, Irigaray, and Merleau-Ponty, Kirby exposes the limitations of theories that regard culture as a second-order system that cannot access—much less be—nature, body, and materiality. She suggests ways of reconceiving language and culture to enable a more materially implicated outcome, one that keeps alive the more counterintuitive and challenging aspects of poststructural criticism. By demonstrating how fields, including cybernetics, biology, forensics, mathematics, and physics, can be conceptualized in deconstructive terms, Kirby fundamentally rethinks deconstruction and its relevance to nature, embodiment, materialism, and science.

- Description
- This book contends that the sex/gender distinction is deeply and fundamentally flawed and must be transcended. The authors reorientate the field by arguing that we cannot continue to found something we call 'gender' upon a naturalistic division of people into groupings for granted as embodying a necessary set of differences. To this end, the work of Foucault, Connell, Goffman, Garfinkel, Butler, Freud, Derrida, Saussure, Lacquer and Kessler and MacKenna is woven into a compelling set of arguments.

- With examples from the paintings of Van Gogh and Picasso, the work of contemporary feminist painters, the photography of Bill Henson and the film and animation work of Van Sowerine, the author describes how Kristeva can illuminate the relationships between artist and art object, between artists, artworks and audiences, and between art and knowledge. Through these relationships the author explores what Kristeva's work reveals about the role and function of art in society and offers a passage through Kristeva's ideas and her relevance to visual culture.

- Hekman believes we are witnessing an intellectual sea change. The main features of this change are found in dichotomies between language and reality, discourse and materiality. Hekman proposes that it is possible to find a more intimate connection between these pairs, one that does not privilege one over the other. By grounding her work in feminist thought and employing analytic philosophy, scientific theory, and linguistic theory, Hekman shows how language and reality can be understood as an indissoluble unit.

- In this book the contributors present diverse viewpoints on feminist issues of embodiement, materialism, and agency from feminist and postmodernist philosophical perspectives. Beginnning by positing non-traditional ways of approaching ontological concerns (through the acknowledgement of agential realties and the usage of an ontology of tropes), the volume concludes by addressing highly specific, culturally constituted types of postmodern bodies (monstrous, anorexic, and pharmaceutical bodies).
