Crossing Boundaries: Feminisms and the Critique of Knowledges de Barbara Caine

Crossing Boundaries: Feminisms and the Critique of Knowledges: Routledge Revivals

Editat de Barbara Caine, E. A. Grosz, Marie de Lepervanche
en Limba Engleză Hardback – noi 2024
First published in 1988, Crossing Boundaries challenges existing disciplines and fields of study from a feminist perspective, contesting their presumptions, and questioning and crossing their boundaries.
The book provides a broad-ranging overview of the state of feminist interventions in the social and natural sciences and the humanities. It illustrates something of the diversity of approaches to theory and scholarship which is evident in the work of feminists. It analyses crucial problems in the way traditional knowledges are conceived, and poses exciting new alternatives.
Here is a lively display of the vigour of feminist investigations, from mathematics to literary criticism, from biology to socialism, from equal pay to polyandry. This book will introduce the reader to the work of feminist thinkers and will be a valuable text for students and teachers of sociology and women’s studies.
