Queer Natures, Queer Mythologies
Autor Sam See, Christopher Looby, Michael North, Scott Herring, Heather Loveen Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 ian 2020
In Part I, in a thorough reading of Darwin, See argues that nature is constantly and aimlessly variable, and that nature itself might be considered queer. In Part II, See proposes that, understood as queer in this way, nature might be made the foundational myth for the building of queer communities.
With essays by Scott Herring, Heather Love, and Wendy Moffat.
