7. Laughing with Medusa: Classical Myth and Feminist Thought. Classical Presences.
by Zajko, Vanda and Miriam Leonard (eds.): 
Price: USD 80.00
Dealer: ZVAB, Fundus-Online GbR Borkert Schwarz Zerfaß
Description: ISBN10: 019927438X, ISBN13: 9780199274383, [publisher: Oxford University Press] Hardcover 445 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag und Einband leicht berieben, sonst sehr guter Zustand / Dust jacket and cover slightly rubbed, otherwise very good condition. - From their beginnings Greek myths have been recounted by those with compelling agendas. One of the strategies of feminist criticism has been to take these well-worn stories about the world and its inhabitants and tell them from a different perspective. The concept of revision has led to potent transformations of mythic figures who have been denigrated for centuries into symbols of utopia. Ancient narratives of resistance and struggle have been revivified to inspire new audiences. The most famous contemporary example is probably Hélène Cixous’s ‘Laugh of the Medusa’—the power of this essay undoubtedly derives, in part, from the inscrutable figure of its title. The importance of classical myth is not restricted to the psychoanalytical feminist tradition within which Cixous may be located. In spheres such as politics, philosophy, historiography, art history as well as the history and theory of science, figures such as Helen, Antigone, Daphne, the Amazons, the Muses, Persephone, Penelope, Thetis, Hercules, and Achilles continue to make substantial contributions to the development of feminist thought. The essays in Laughing with Medusa explore the reception of classical myth within feminist writing from a truly interdisciplinary perspective. They include a specially commissioned work of fiction, ‘Iphigeneia’s Wedding’, by the writer Elizabeth Cook.

Price: USD 234.47
Dealer: AbebooksAU, AussieBookSeller
Description: ISBN10: 019927438X, ISBN13: 9780199274383, [publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford] Hardcover Hardcover. Laughing with Medusa explores a series of interlinking questions, including: Does history's self-positioning as the successor of myth result in the exclusion of alternative narratives of the past? How does feminism exclude itself from certain historical discourses? Why has psychoanalysis placed myth at the centre of its explorations of the modern subject? Why are the Muses feminine? Do the categories of myth and politics intersect or are they mutuallyexclusive? Does feminism's recourse to myth offer a script of resistance or commit it to an ineffective utopianism? Covering a wide range of subject areas including poetry, philosophy, science, history, andpsychoanalysis as well as classics, this book engages with these questions from a truly interdisciplinary perspective. It includes a specially commisssioned work of fiction, `Iphigeneia's Wedding', by the poet Elizabeth Cook. Explores the reception of classical myth within feminist writing across a range of subject areas, including philosophy, science, politics, and psychoanalysis. This book claims that myth has been central to the formulation and development of feminist thought and politics, and examines the conceptual opposition between mythic and rational thought.
