What is OCLC TEST RECORD DO NOT USE Feminisms in the academy about?

Feminisms in the Academy explores the relationship between feminist scholarship and the other academic disciplines. Going beyond the conventional "mainstreaming" model which may tend to polarize and caricature positions, the essays employ existing epistemological and methodological tensions to generate productive dialogues within and among the humanities and social sciences, as well as in interdisciplinary areas such as African-American and Latina studies. Part I, "Questioning the Disciplines," addresses the challenges that feminist scholarship poses to unexamined assumptions in four emblematic disciplines: philosophy, art history, psychology, and literature. The essays here demonstrate that such challenges have posed new questions and dilemmas for the disciplines, as well as for feminist scholarship. Part II, "Reading Differently," investigates the ways in which gender as an analytic tool transforms disciplinary knowledge and creates an opening to other categories of difference in literary criticism, sociology, and classical studies. The essays in Part III, "Feminism and the Politics of Intellectual Inquiry," explore the complex dynamics between feminist scholarship and the field
