Aprašymas

Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick was one of the most significant literary theorists of the last forty years and a key figure in contemporary queer theory. In this engaging and inspiring guide, Jason Edwards:



introduces and explains key terms such as affects, the first person, homosocialities, and queer taxonomies, performativities and cusps

considers Sedgwick s poetry and textile art alongside her theoretical texts

encourages a personal as well as an academic response to Sedgwick s work, suggesting how life-changing it can be

offers detailed suggestions for further reading

Written in an accessible and direct style, Edwards indicates the impact that Sedgwick s work continues to have on writers, readers, and literary and cultural theory today.
