In Bodies That Matter, renowned theorist and philosopher Judith Butler argues that theories of gender need to return to the most material dimension of sex and sexuality: the body. Butler argues that power operates to constrain sex from the start, delimiting what counts as a viable sex. Butler offers a brilliant reworking of the body, examining how the power of heterosexual hegemony forms the "matter" of bodies, sex, and gender.
She also draws on documentary and literature with compelling interpretations of the film "Paris is Burning", Nella Larsen's "Passing," and short stories by Willa Cather. She clarifies the notion of "performativity" introduced in Gender Trouble and via bold readings of Plato, Irigaray, Lacan, and Freud explores the meaning of a citational politics. Judith Butler is Maxine Elliot Professor in the Departments of Rhetoric and Comparative Literature and the Co-director of the Program of Critical Theory at the University of California, Berkeley.
She is presently the recipient of the Andrew Mellon Award for Distinguished Academic Achievement in the Humanities.
