Reading from Behind: A Cultural Analysis of the Anus de Jonathan A. Allan

Reading from Behind: A Cultural Analysis of the Anus: Exquisite Corpse

Autor Jonathan A. Allan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 mar 2016
'A serious work of theory.'The Guardian'Jonathan Allan has come up with a whole theory of the arsehole.'Dazed and ConfusedIn a resolute deviation from the governing totality of the phallus, Reading from Behind offers a radical reorientation of the anus and its role in the collective imaginary. It exposes what is deeply hidden in our cultural production, and challenges the authority of paranoid, critical thought. A beautiful work that invites us beyond the rejection of phallocentricism, to a new way of being and thinking about sex, culture and identity.

Recenzii

Looks at the subject of the 'booty' with remarkable enthusiasm.
Jonathan Allan has come up with a whole theory of the arsehole.
Readers outside the academy will be rewarded with a fine example of textual analysis-and, possibly, a new appreciation of the anus as the most democratic and empowering of our body parts.
A serious work of theory, exploring the backside as a site of humiliation and disgust.
Allan's work is, in a sense, groundbreaking ... opening up a whole new field of study ... Allan's book should be required reading.
Assholes are like opinions: Everyone has them - but no one has more opinions on assholes than Jonathan Allan.
A remarkably fresh and original contribution to contemporary queer studies. I am confident that, withReading from Behind, Allan will emerge as a widely respected critical voice of his generation.
Entertaining and informative.
Allan reorients studies of anality.
