Kurzbeschreibung
In many fields, the body is the topic generating exciting new research and interdisciplinary inquiry. Feminist theorists, in particular, have focused on the female body as the site where representations of difference and identity are inscribed. Drawn from a broad range of disciplines, Writing on the Body explores the tensions between women's lived bodily experiences and the cultural meanings inscribed on the female body. The volume includes classic and contemporary essays on rape, pornography, eroticism, anorexia, body building, menstruation, and maternity, and challenges racial, class and sexual categories. Complemented by the editors' introduction, Writing on the Body is a comprehensive sourcebook on the major theoretical positions and critical trends surrounding the female body.
Synopsis
This work comprises a collection of influential readings in feminist theory. It is divided into four sections: "Reading the Body"; "Bodies in Production", which examines the representation of the female body as a site for objectification and as a critical spectator; "The Body Speaks"; and "Body on Stage" which traces the female body through the performances that sometimes constitute gender identity.

Einleitungssatz
It is difficult to see how our current scientific ideas are infused by cultural assumptions; it is easier to see how scientific ideas from the past, ideas that now seem wrong or too simple, might have been affected by cultural ideas of an earlier time. Lesen Sie die erste Seite

writing on the body provides good sample-sizes of a variety of feminist theorists ranging from judith butler's essay on gender performativity to sandra lee bartky's (amazing) essay using foucault's work to analyze how various mechanisms of control affect women's bodily experiences. while writing on the body does an excellent job covering a range of theorists, the reader is left with literally only a tiny piece of each theorist. therefore, this anthology serves as a good beginning for those looking to investigate feminist theorizing about the body.
This is a wonderful collection of essays for anyone looking for an introduction to feminist theory, or simply for new ways to perceive and analyze the body. The bitesize samples of Judith Butler, Catharine MacKinnon, Audre Lorde, and bell hooks challenge the reader to confront contemporary issues such as rape, gender, and representations of women of color in ways that are radically different from mainstream thought.
