This paper studies the role played by the figure of the Trojan horse in the work of Monique Wittig. I argue that if this particular figure is so important to Wittig, it is not only because it is a pillar of tradition that they want to... more

1 MONIQUE WITTIG, A marca do género I Para os linguistas a marca do género diz respeito aos substantivos. Só a consideram em termos de função. Só a questionam por brincadeira, por exemplo quando falam do género como um " sexo fictício ".... more
l feminismo contemporáneo se caracteriza por pensar "lo otro", asumir la extrañeza que provoca la ruptura de la norma y descomponer los esencialismos, así como producir una genealogía crítica, es decir, utilizar la deconstrucción como... more
Se pretende hacer un estudio comparativo entre algunos puntos de encuentro entre estas teóricas del feminismo, con el propósito de identificar la influencia de Beauvoir en el pensamiento de Wittig: concretamente, la prolongación del... more
If the demeanor of a public voice is set in large part by the genre in which one is called to speech, then I can only begin by confessing that I do not fulfill here what memorialization might most seem to offer. This is odd, no doubt,... more
Le rapport de la lectrice au texte littéraire gagne à être replacé avec François Rastier dans la perspective plus large d'une chaîne de transmission, générique et culturelle. Abandonnant la valeur irénique, le "contre, dans le cas de... more

aux éditions de la Pléiade 1 , tout en s'offusquant d'une part, que l'auteure du Deuxième Sexe ne soit que la quinzième femme à y figurer et d'autre part, que l'oeuvre que nous venons de mentionner et qui fut un point de « rupture dans... more
Questionnant la pertinence du concept d'« écriture féminine » tel qu'introduit par Hélène Cixous, cet exposé a pour but d'en traquer les failles pour en proposer une nouvelle définition, à la fois plus universelle et plus resserrée., en... more

In this provocative and illuminating book, Patrick McGee looks at the ways in which certain texts resist the dominant cultural assumptions that condition their writing and reception. Challenging received notions of aesthetic and social... more
In its most common understanding, the term “gender” primarily refers today to the complementarity of femininity and masculinity, understood in turn as psychosocial identities; and so it has been used also by large sectors of feminism.... more

Although Judith Butler's theorization of violence has begun to receive growing scholarly attention, the feminist theoretical background of her notion of violence remains unexplored. In order to fill this lacuna, this article explicates... more
This dissertation tinkers with the portrayal of contemporary feminism in television; and not just any kind of television series: science fiction. At the moment, sci-fi is still a relatively male-dominated genre around the world. This... more

The foundations of queer theory are in part built on the work of Monique Wittig. Yet, Wittig found queer theory wanting and, as Robyn Wiegman notes: “Judith Butler's paradigm-shifting Gender Trouble needed Wittig to make the turn that has... more
El campo de pensamientos y de prácticas que se despliega en el encuentro entre danza y filosofía exige desplazamientos en los modos de conocer instituidos, que son, a su vez, modos de hacer. En este artículo se problematizan ciertas... more

Il pensiero di Monique Wittig ha viaggiato in maniera carsica ma persistente nelle teorie e nei movimenti femministi italiani degli ultimi decenni, tra traduzioni militanti, letture collettive, seminari e perfino un fan club. Un... more
