Literature that reflected changing attitudes toward sexuality, religion, and social institutions fell victim to the Comstock Act and related state laws. Dr. Edward Bliss Foote became among the earliest individuals convicted under the law after he mailed a brochure on birth-control methods. For the next four decades, Foote Sr. and his son, Dr. Edward Bond Foote, challenged the Comstock Act in Congress, legislaturesAmerican popular history and culture (Routledge (Firm))Freedom of speechUnited StatesHistoryFreedom of speechHistory.323.44/3097309034Wood Janice Ruth1586656MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910799977803321The struggle for free speech in the United States, 1872-19153873373UNINA03438nam 22007815 450 991098306980332120250806180309.09783031785092303178509610.1007/978-3-031-78509-2(CKB)37407202700041(MiAaPQ)EBC31897036(Au-PeEL)EBL31897036(DE-He213)978-3-031-78509-2(OCoLC)1495130803(EXLCZ)993740720270004120250129d2025 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierWhiteness at the Abyss A Lacanian Reading of ‘White Anxiety’ /by Derek Hook1st ed. 2025.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2025.1 online resource (153 pages)The Palgrave Lacan Series,2946-420X9783031785085 3031785088 1. Fragments From a Research History -- 2. Petrified Life -- 3. White Anxiety -- 4. Reflections on a Scene of Attack.‘Whiteness’ is an omnipresent term within research on race and racism. This book differs from existing conceptualizations by adopting a psychoanalytic line of approach and by directing its attention to a particular socio-historical instantiation of whiteness—the investments, fantasies and fears apparent within (post) apartheid South African contexts. It foregrounds the notion of ‘white anxiety’, which is conceptualized not only via notions of psychical temporality, but with reference to the dystopian visions of the future, ideas of inter-generational guilt, and fantasies of demise. To posit an imagined ‘end to whiteness’ is not, of course, an uncontroversial gesture; the closing section of the book surveys the key themes—antisemitism, white Nationalism, the trope of the race traitor—in online attacks the author was subjected to. This compelling work will appeal to all those with an interest in psychoanalytic approaches to race and racism, and to anyone working in the areas of critical race and whiteness studies.The Palgrave Lacan Series,2946-420XPsychoanalysisCultureStudy and teachingRaceClinical psychologyCritical theoryLiteraturePhilosophyPsychoanalysisCultural TheoryRace and Ethnicity StudiesClinical PsychologyCritical TheoryLiterary TheoryPsychoanalysis.CultureStudy and teaching.Race.Clinical psychology.Critical theory.LiteraturePhilosophy.Psychoanalysis.Cultural Theory.Race and Ethnicity Studies.Clinical Psychology.Critical Theory.Literary Theory.305.80019Hook Derek713676George Sheldon1785897Moss Donald254606Žižek Slavoj171480MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910983069803321Whiteness at the Abyss4317348UNINA
