Through a series of readings of three key Latin literary texts alongside six contemporary cultural theorists, Ika Willis argues for an understanding of sovereignty as a system which enforces certain rules for legibility, transmission and circulation on both information and bodies, redefining the relationship between the 'virtual' and the 'material'. This book is both innovative and important in that it brings together several key strands in recent thinking about sovereignty, history, space, and telecommunications, especially in the way it brings together 'textual' theories (reception, deconstruction) with political and spatial thinking. It also serves as a much-needed crossing-point between Classical Studies and cultural theory. 410 0$aContinuum Studies in Classical Reception 606 $aPolitical science$xClassical influences 606 $2Ancient history: to c 500 CE 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aPolitics in literature 606 $aSovereignty in literature 606 $aSpace in literature 615 0$aPolitical science$xClassical influences. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPolitics in literature. 615 0$aSovereignty in literature. 615 0$aSpace in literature. 676 $a871/.01 700 $aWillis$b Ika$f1975-$0617472 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973343503321 996 $aNow and Rome$91085722 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04387nam 2200721Ia 450 001 9910958455603321 005 20251116215655.0 010 $a9786611729264 010 $a9781281729262 010 $a1281729264 010 $a9780300128932 010 $a0300128932 024 7 $a10.12987/9780300128932 035 $a(CKB)1000000000471968 035 $a(StDuBDS)AH23049541 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000109183 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11135289 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000109183 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10045369 035 $a(PQKB)11372979 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3420010 035 $a(DE-B1597)485446 035 $a(OCoLC)952732139 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780300128932 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3420010 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10170036 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL172926 035 $a(OCoLC)923589880 035 $a(Perlego)1089611 035 $z(OCoLC)952732139 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000471968 100 $a20000320d2000 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aBattered women & feminist lawmaking /$fElizabeth M.

This important book examines the pathbreaking legal process that has brought the pervasiveness and severity of domestic violence to public attention and has led the United States Congress, the Supreme Court, and the United Nations to address the problem. Elizabeth Schneider has played a pioneering role in this process. From an insider's perspective she explores how claims of rights for battered women have emerged from feminist activism, and she assesses the possibilities and limitations of feminist legal advocacy to improve battered women's lives and transform law and culture. The book chronicles the struggle to incorporate feminist arguments into law, particularly in cases of battered women who kill their assailants and battered women who are mothers. With a broad perspective on feminist lawmaking as a vehicle of social change, Schneider examines subjects as wide-ranging as criminal prosecution of batterers, the civil rights remedy of the Violence Against Women Act of 1994, the O. J. Simpson trials, and a class on battered women and the law that she taught at Harvard Law School. Feminist lawmaking on woman abuse, Schneider argues, should reaffirm the historic vision of violence and gender equality that originally animated activist and legal work. 517 3 $aBattered women and feminist lawmaking 606 $aAbused women$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States 606 $aFamily violence$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aFeminist jurisprudence$zUnited States 615 0$aAbused women$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aFamily violence$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aFeminist jurisprudence 676 $a362.82/92 700 $aSchneider$b Elizabeth M$01814918 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958455603321 996 $aBattered women & feminist lawmaking$94369130 997 $aUNINA
