Queering Desire: Lesbians, Gender and Subjectivity: Routledge Research in Gender and Society
Editat de Róisín Ryan-Flood, Amy Tooth Murphyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 apr 2024
Within queer studies, explorations of desire, longing, and eroticism have often neglected AFAB, transfeminine, and non-binary people’s experiences. Through 25 newly commissioned chapters, a diverse range of authors, from early career researchers to established scholars, stage conversations at the cutting edge of sexuality studies. Queering Desire advances our understanding of contemporary lesbian and queer desire from an inclusive perspective that is supportive of trans and non-binary identities.
This innovative interdisciplinary collection is an excellent resource for scholars, undergraduate, and postgraduate students interested in gender, sexuality, and identity across a range of fields, such as queer studies, feminist theory, anthropology, media studies, sociology, psychology, history, and social theory. In foregrounding female and non-binary experiences, this book constitutes a timely intervention.

Recenzii
“This extraordinary volume brings together cutting-edge work on lesbian desires and subjectivities. Against those who would argue that lesbian identity is obsolete, Queering Desire showcases our extraordinary talent for self-invention—through visual production, performance, and in everyday life. Smart and edgy in equal measure, it challenges taken-for-granted notions of gender and sexual subjectivities while being respectful of the contributions of lesbian elders. If you want to understand lesbian lives today, start here!”
Prof Arlene Stein, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, Rutgers University, USA
“This book is breath taking in its reach, potential and necessity. It covers a huge range of areas demonstrating the possibilities of explorations of Queer Desires that are overlooked. Bringing lesbian/queer/bi/non-binary desires to the fore this book is truly agenda setting ranging across the humanities and social sciences with multi-disciplinary ease and outstanding authors. It is a must read for all interested in difference, desire, intimacies, care, gender, sex, and sexualities.”
Prof Kath Browne, University College Dublin, Ireland
“As the torch passes from one generation of queer scholars and activists to another, Queering Desire is the book to read if you want to understand changing configurations of gendered sexualities: how we got here, how this ‘we’ perpetually dissolves and coalesces into new formations, and what our messy, inspiring, contentious, glittering forays into solidarity have to teach about doing the politically needful without disavowing our differences.”
Prof Kath Weston, University of Virginia, USA
“This is a landmark book for unprecedented times that brings together and curates an important and innovative set of contributions exploring the queering of desire, identity, and eroticism, paying keen and close attention to some of the exclusions that have shaped the sexed and gendered landscape. The editors of the collection have achieved a remarkable aim, by bringing together a truly diverse set of reflections, creating a lively and important set of conversations that attend to the contemporary context and its historical formations, that work across theory and practice, in the context of representation and lived experience, and which ensures that new voices are heard alongside the important voices of those who have pioneered and shaped sexuality, queer and trans studies. This book is for now, it is the book that has been missing from our bookshelves and that many of us have been looking and waiting for. The book will bring in new generations of readers and scholars, as well as providing a mapping of how we have reached this point and where we might go as we imagine different possibilities for the future.”
Prof Lisa Blackman, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK
"This ambitious and important book explores contemporary and historical understandings of lesbian, bisexual, queer and non-binary people’s experiences of identity and desire. Bringing together 25 original contributions from key authors in the field, it provides a timely overview of contemporary debates as well as suggesting new directions for research. An essential resource and a must read for anyone interested in these issues."
