Description
Womens Liberation and the Sublime is a passionate report on the state of feminist thinking and practice after the linguistic turn. A critical assessment of masculinist notions of the sublime in modern and postmodern accounts grounds the author's positive and constructive recuperation of sublime experience in a feminist voice.Reviews
"Overall, Mann's criticisms of postmodern feminism are important and her explanation of the positive feminist use of the sublime breaks new ground."--Feminism and Philosophy
