Feminist Theory: Historicism, Psychoanalysis, & Queer Theory
Philosophy to Historicism “To the extent that Foucault fits into the philosophical tradition, it is the critical tradition of Kant, and his project could be called A Critical History of Thought.” -Foucault Dictionnaire des Philosophes 1984: 942
Historicism to Psychoanalysis “Psychoanalysis is the mother tongue of our modernity and… the important issues of our time are scarcely articulable outside the concepts it has forged.” -Copjec Imagine There’s No Woman 2004: 10
Psychoanalysis to Queer Theory “Although I am critical of certain appropriations of psychoanalysis for thinking about the limits of political self-identification, I will hope to make clear… the centrality of psychoanalysis to any project that seeks to understand emancipatory projects in both their psychic and social dimensions.” -Butler Contingency, Hegemony, Universality 2000: 14
