Such images have also informed, constrained, and motivated recent continental feminist theory. In Violence and the Philosophical Imaginary, Ann V. Murphy takes note of wide-ranging references to the themes of violence and vulnerability in contemporary theory. She considers the ethical and political implications of this language of violence with the aim of revealing other ways in which identity and the social bond might be imagined, and encourages some critical distance from the images of violence that pervade philosophical critique. 410 0$aSUNY series in gender theory. 606 $aViolence$xPhilosophy 606 $aImagination (Philosophy) 615 0$aViolence$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aImagination (Philosophy) 676 $a303.601 700 $aMurphy$b Ann V$01691723 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822351703321 996 $aViolence and the philosophical imaginary$94068303 997 $aUNINA
