Product Description

Product Description
What can psychoanalysis offer contemporary arguments in the fields of feminism, queer theory and post-colonialism? Jan Campbell introduces and analyzes the way that psychoanalysis has developed models of subjectivity linked to issues of sexuality, ethnicity, gender and history. Via discussions of such influential and diverse figures as Lacan, Irigaray, Kristeva, Dollimore, Bhabha, Toni Morrison and Alice Walker, Campbell uses psychoanalysis as a tool in a range of debates across the human sciences. She also argues for a transformation of psychoanalytic theory itself. Alert to the issues at stake in either a wholesale acceptance or refection of psychoanalysis, Campbell offer interpretation of the symbolic system as a necessary and valuable intervention in cultural theory. Her book should be of interest to undergraduates and postgraduates across a range of disciplines including cultural studies, gender studies, literature, film and media, psychology and sociology.

3.0 out of 5 stars Feminists again, 26 Jul 2007
By Wayne Redhart "Also on Twitter!" (West Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Fifty quid for a 'psychoanalytic contribution' to the field of 'arguing with the phallus'? I can think of a number of better ways to spend my money. In fact, I was only recently introduced to the services of a buxom young lady going by the stage name of 'Marina'. She can do a variety of things with a phallus but (provided there's a crisp-fifty-pound note on offer) you'll never hear her 'arguing'.
