Based on four years of in-depth and immersive participant observation, she juxtaposes her experiences in the field with the life stories of community members, providing a richly detailed portrait of SM as a social space in which experiences of ""violence"" interseSadomasochismSexual dominance and submissionSadomasochistsCase studiesElectronic books.Sadomasochism.Sexual dominance and submission.Sadomasochists306.77/5306.775Newmahr Staci976654MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459006103321Playing on the edge2224829UNINA03791nam 2200709 450 991080901240332120230126203630.00-7391-7042-2(CKB)2550000001144429(EBL)1486324(OCoLC)861559433(SSID)ssj0001040014(PQKBManifestationID)11595342(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001040014(PQKBWorkID)11008511(PQKB)10683993(MiAaPQ)EBC1486324(Au-PeEL)EBL1486324(CaPaEBR)ebr10786741(CaONFJC)MIL546404(EXLCZ)99255000000114442920131024h20132013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAfrican pasts, presents, and futures generational shifts in African women's literature, film, and internet discourse /Touria KhannousLanham :Lexington Books,2013.©20131 online resource (231 p.)After the Empire: The Francophone World and Postcolonial FranceDescription based upon print version of record.0-7391-7041-4 Includes bibliographies and index.Contents; Acknowledgments; Theoretical Introduction; I: Negotiating Colonial and National Politics; 1 Algerian Women in the Public Sphere; 2 Ama Ata Aidoo's Modernism and the Politics of Postcolonialism; 3 Rewriting Power; II: Postcolonial Injustices; 4 National Reconciliation through Narrative; 5 National Violence and Male Crisis Discourse in Yvonne Vera's The Stone Virgins; 6 Political Satire in Tess Onwueme's Play No Vacancy; III: Reflections on Islam, Identity, and Gender; 7 Islam, Gender, and Identity in Leila Abouzeid's The Last Chapter8 Strategies of Representation and Post/colonial Identity in Farida Benlyazid's Door to the Sky and Moufida Tlatli's Silences of the Palace9 Islam, Youth, and the Global; IV: Internet Discourse and Women as Agents of Change; 10 Debating Islam, Gender, and the Arab Spring; Conclusion; Bibliography; Index; About the AuthorAfrican Pasts, Presents, and Futures: Generational Shifts in African Women's Literature, Film, and Internet Discourse, by Touria Khannous, critically reevaluates assumptions in liberal feminist theory, which has examined African women primarily in terms of their object status rather than as agents effecting change.
