Ruby Rich" . . . sets philosophical ideas humming. . . . she has much to say." -Cineaste"I can think of no other work that pushes the debate on the female subject forward with such passion and intellectual rigor." -Sub Stance This book addresses the question of gender in poststructuralist theoretical discourse, postmodern fiction, and women’s cinema. It examines the construction of gender both as representation and as self-representation in relation to several kinds of texts and argues that feminism is producing a radical rewriting, as well as a rereading, of the dominant forms of Western culture.
