{"product_id":"menstration-now-what-does-blood-berkeley-kaite-9781772581881","title":"Menstration Now What Does Blood Perform?","description":"Each of the eight chapters in this volume addresses menstruation and\/or menstrual blood in various media sites with a view to answering the question, what does blood perform? Menstrual blood may be enduringly feminine but it is never just one thing. Menstruation Now contains chapters on: the shifting \"conversation\" of menstruation in contemporary advertising; menstrual blood and the \"female complaint\" in Alice Munro's short story, \"Chance\"; the signification of menstrual blood in legal discourse; blood as a para-text in pornographic films; the placement of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis's phantasized menstrual blood in biographies of her; contemporary menstrual art; menstrual blood as liminal space in Ingmar Bergman's film Cries and Whispers; and, unruly blood in the TV show Orange is the New Black. Blood is performative: disruptive, noisy, aesthetically fluid, difficult to discipline. It can thus, now as always, be performed again in the service of new meanings and experiences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Berkeley Kaite\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1772581887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781772581881\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Demeter Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Berkeley Kaite","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48065810858239,"sku":"9781772581881","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c53dd3fd-32ce-4675-b44b-7cc023e1b8cb.jpg?v=1768677437","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/menstration-now-what-does-blood-berkeley-kaite-9781772581881","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
