Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Feminist Imagination explores feminist theory as an intricate imaginative endeavor, examining its philosophical, political, and emotional ties to history, particularly the racial trials of the twentieth century. It addresses contemporary feminist thought's perceived 'directionlessness', essentialism, and embodiment, while analyzing racial tensions in Simone de Beauvoir's work and the totalitarian aspects in Hannah Arendt's philosophy. Additionally, it delves into Judith Butler's concept of mimesis, particularly in relation to the figure of the 'mimetic Jew'.
