She defends Irigaray's unique form of essentialism and her rethinking of the relationship between nature and culture, showing how Irigaray's ideas can be reconciled with Judith Butler's performative conception of gender, through rethinking sexual difference in relation to German Romantic philosophies of nature. This is a sustained attempt to connect feminist conceptions of embodiment to German idealist and Romantic accounts of nature. Not merely an interpretation of Irigaray, this book also presents an original feminist perspective on nature and the body. It will encourage debate on the relations between sexual difference, essentialism, and embodiment. 606 $aFeminist theory 606 $aSex role 615 0$aFeminist theory. 615 0$aSex role. 676 $a305.4201 700 $aStone$b Alison$f1972-$0993800 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824966503321 996 $aLuce Irigaray and the philosophy of sexual difference$94046613 997 $aUNINA
