Opening with a substantial critical introduction, this collection of twelve essays and creative pieces contributes to significant current debates regarding sexual rights and their violation, queer theory and identity politics, sexual fantasy formations and strategies of pleasure, and the celebration of sexual diversity, topics explored through a variety of disciplinary frameworks, including gender and film studies, religious philosophy, neo-Victorian and postcolonial literature, sociology, pornography, and performance art. The volume positions the subjects of sex and sexuality as crucial to our ethical understanding of the human, both in individual and communal terms, exploring how claims for sexual subjectivity and citizenship are formulated and the entitlements they entail. The analytical insights offered signal important new directions for critical engagement with the socio-political construction of sexuality and its strategic deployment within the cultural imaginary. Designed to appeal equally to scholars, students, and general readers, Negotiating Sexual Idioms will prove essential reading for those interested in multi-disciplinary approaches to reading sex and sexuality within inter-cultural contexts, from the early modern period to the present-day. 410 0$aAt the interface/probing the boundaries ;$vv. 53. 606 $aFeminism in literature 606 $aHomosexuality in literature 606 $aHomosexuality in motion pictures 606 $aSex differences (Psychology) in literature 606 $aSex in literature 606 $aSex role in literature 606 $aSex role in motion pictures 606 $aSex$xReligious aspects 615 0$aFeminism in literature. 615 0$aHomosexuality in literature. 615 0$aHomosexuality in motion pictures. 615 0$aSex differences (Psychology) in literature. 615 0$aSex in literature. 615 0$aSex role in literature. 615 0$aSex role in motion pictures. 615 0$aSex$xReligious aspects. 676 $a155.33 701 $aKohlke$b Marie-Luise$01711528 701 $aOrza$b Luisa$01725139 712 12$aGlobal Conference on Critical Issues in Sex and Sexuality$d(3rd :$f2006 :$eKrakow, Poland) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812933803321 996 $aNegotiating sexual idioms$94127796 997 $aUNINA
