Taking an interdisciplinary approach, \u003ci\u003eLaura Mulvey: Feminist Legacies\u003c\/i\u003e looks beyond Mulvey's contributions to the feminist seventies, and the assumption of its political limitations. Instead, by connecting her roles as film director, theorist, writer, and activist\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e established and emerging scholars re-emphasize the radical intent of Mulvey's theoretical and practical interventions. In doing so, they assert that her oeuvre articulates a sensibility and mode of inquiry that has been formative for feminist interventions into visual culture around the globe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIncluding previously unpublished examples of her writing, along with new conversations with Martine Beugnet, Sheila Rowbotham, Yvonne Rainer, and Adeena Mey, this collection illuminates the histories that have shaped Mulvey's contributions to feminist film, art, thought, and politics. By tracing how Mulvey's work is a vital part of the feminist concerns of the present, the book makes it clear that not only are Mulvey's investigations into feminist visual culture ongoing, they also anticipate and impact scholarly directions in sensation, affect, materiality, race, and technology that are playing out within contemporary feminist debates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kimberly Lamm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839026626\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839026621\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Film Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.00d","brand":"Kimberly Lamm","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48800579289343,"sku":"9781839026621","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/laura-mulvey-kimberly-lamm-9781839026621","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
