Transgender and Intersex: Theoretical, Practical, and Artistic Perspectives de Stefan Horlacher

Transgender and Intersex: Theoretical, Practical, and Artistic Perspectives

Editat de Stefan Horlacher
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 noi 2016
This book takes both transgender and intersex positions into account and asks about commonalities and strategic alliances in terms of knowledge, theory, philosophy, art, and life experience. It strikes a balance between works on literature, film, photography, sports, law, and general theory, bringing together humanistic and social science approaches. Horlacher adopts a non-hierarchical perspective and asks how transgender and intersex issues are conceptualized from a variety of different viewpoints and to what extent artistic and creative discourses offer their own uniquely relevant forms of knowledge and expression.
