This provocative notion is explored in a collection of essays selected from, and inspired by, the proceedings of a conference held in the Department of French at the University of Cambridge in 2002. The authors engage with exposure as both object and mode of representation in a range of cultural media: literature, critical theory, visual art and film. They analyse a variety of works from the medieval, early-modern, and modern periods, examining not only canonical texts such as Montaigne's \u003ci\u003eEssais \u003c\/i\u003ebut also lesser-studied works such as the psychoanalytic theory of Didier Anzieu, the photomontage self-portraits of Claude Cahun, and the novel \u003ci\u003eLa Nouvelle Pornographie \u003c\/i\u003eby Marie Nimier. This volume thus both illustrates and, more importantly, interrogates the richness of the term exposure, in a way that is stimulating for students and researchers alike.","brand":"Verlag Peter Lang","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51043707683159,"sku":"9783039101634","price":46.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783039101634.jpg?v=1750959190","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/exposure-revealing-bodies-unveiling-representations-9783039101634","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
