Feminism and film theory /

edited by Penley, Constance

Feminism and film theory / Constance Penley - New York Routledge 1988 - 273 p.

Feminism and Film Theory traces the major issues in feminist film theory as they have evolved over the last decade. Comprised of essays that are "classics" of this intellectually sophisticated area of cultural studies, Feminism and Film Theory makes available much sought after essays that are often difficult to find. Empha-sizing the polemical challenge of feminism to film theory, this anthology forces us to reconsider film theory's most basic ideas about genre, narrative, image, spec-tatorship and audience. The essays offer a model for a politically engaged critique of contemporary thought. Feminism and Film Theory will be of great interest to students and scholars concerned with film, critical theory, art and media, cultural studies or feminism.
