Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This expansive study explores the intersection of feminist critique and female-directed horror films, examining how feminist readings enhance the understanding of horror and vice versa. It delves into themes such as materiality, embodiment, affect, violence, desire, form, and relationality, highlighting the unique insights that horror can provide to feminist thought. The work challenges traditional perspectives and invites a deeper consideration of how difference influences both feminist analysis and the horror genre.
