Hitchcock's Bi-Textuality: Lacan, Feminisms, and Queer Theory

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the intersection of Lacanian ethics, feminine subjectivity, and queer textuality, this work delves into Hitchcock's films to reveal a concept of "bi-textuality," paralleling Freud's notion of bisexuality. It critiques traditional interpretations that focus on male heterosexuality, highlighting the films' diverse sexual identities and desires. Engaging with theorists like Kristeva and Butler, the book challenges the association of the feminine with the unconscious, advocating for a broader understanding of sexuality and representation through a psychoanalytic lens.
