This understanding concerns man's relationship to the question of 'woman' but femininity is also a matter of sexuality and gender and therefore of identity and experience. Drawing together leading academics, including film and literary scholars, clinicians and artists from diverse backgrounds, \u003ci\u003eFemininity and Psychoanalysis: Cinema, Culture, Theory \u003c\/i\u003espeaks to the continued relevance of psychoanalytic understanding in a social and political landscape where ideas of gender and sexuality are undergoing profound changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis transdisciplinary collection crosses boundaries between clinical and psychological discourse and arts and humanities fields to approach the topic of femininity from a variety of psychoanalytic perspectives. From object relations, to Lacan, to queer theory, the essays here revisit and rethink the debates over what the feminine might be. The volume presents a major new work by leading feminist film scholar, Elizabeth Cowie, in which she presents a first intervention on the topic of film and the feminine for over 20 years, as well as a key essay by the prominent artist and psychoanalyst, Bracha Ettinger. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by an international selection of contributors, this collection is an indispensable tool for film and literary scholars engaged with psychoanalysts and anybody interested in different approaches to the question of the feminine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Agnieszka Piotrowska\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138500925\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138500921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/11\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 262\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Agnieszka Piotrowska","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48087738843391,"sku":"9781138500921","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d511fa64-f409-4408-8325-a6dccb5d2a8d.jpg?v=1769101124","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/femininity-and-psychoanalysis-agnieszka-piotrowska-9781138500921","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
