Sommario/riassunto

Lesbians and gays have gone from ""coming out,"" to ""acting up,"" to ""outing,""  meanwhile radically redefining society's views on sexuality and gender. The essays in Inside/Out employ a variety of approaches (psychoanalysis, deconstruction, semiotics, and discourse theory) to investigate representations of sex and sexual difference in literature, film, video, music, and photography.
