What is Conflict and Counterpoint in Lesbian, Gay, and Feminist Studies about?

Interrogating A Broad Array Of Lesbian, Gay, And Feminist Theories, This Book Considers Instances Of Unnecessarily Divisive Turf-battling, Yet Focuses Primarily On The Productive Debates That Define And Vitalize The Field. Moving Beyond The Classic Opposition That Pits The Sex-positive Leftist Academy Against Abstract Sexism And Homophobia, Foertsch's Text Isolates Oppositions Within Gender And Sexuality Studies, Considering Homophobic Feminist Theories, Sexist (or Anti-feminist) Gay Theories, And The Field's Tendency To Triangulate Itself In Two-against-one Fashion Or In Contests Between Two Camps For The Allegiance Of The Third. Introduction : Open Books, Private Lives -- The Trials Of Trialoguing In Lesbian, Gay, And Feminist Studies -- What's In A Name : Semantic Slips And Slides In Lesbian, Gay And Feminist Studies' Key Terms -- The Critical Impasse : Inverse Relations Among Lesbian, Gay, And Feminist Approaches -- What We Read : Lesbian, Gay, And Feminist Approaches To Fiction -- Why We Watch : Lesbian, Gay, And Feminist Approaches To Film -- Conclusion : Dividing Lines, Ties That Bind. Jacqueline Foertsch. Includes Bibliographical References (p. [209]-223) And Index.
