Robyn Wiegman challenges us to re-examine our most cherished platitudes about race-and-gender, including the kind of identity politics that not only leave out African American women but also reinscribe a pernicious politics of \"separate but equal\" through the celebration of difference. This as a stunning account of racial\/gender infusions and confusions in nineteenth- and twentieth-century U. S. culture. Controversial, brilliant, provocative.\"—Cathy Davidson, Duke University\u003cbr\u003e\"Wiegman goes well beyond current discussions in working out the theoretical challenges and cultural logics of rethinking difference within the postmodern condition, and she correctly pinpoints the overlap of race and gender within feminist theory as a decisive zone of critical articulation between postmodernism and oppositional politics.\"—Steven Mailloux, University of California, Irvine","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49406015799639,"sku":"9780822315919","price":25.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780822315919.jpg?v=1730494250","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/american-anatomies-9780822315919","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
