One of the most talked-about scholarly works of the past fifty years, Judith Butler’s Gender Trouble is as celebrated as it is controversial.
Arguing that traditional feminism is wrong to look to a natural, »essential » notion of the female, or indeed of sex or gender, Butler starts by questioning the category »woman » and continues in this vein with examinations of »the masculine » and »the feminine ». Best known however, but also most often misinterpreted, is Butler »s concept of gender as a reiterated social performance rather than the expression of a prior reality.
Thrilling and provocative, few other academic works have roused passions to the same extent.
