Selected essays include "Sexual Indifference and Lesbian Representation, " "The Lure of the Mannish Lesbian, " "Eccentric Subjects, " "Habit Changes, " "The Intractability of Desire, " and the unpublished article "Figures of Resistance." An introduction from feminist film scholar Patricia White provides an overview of the development of de Lauretis's thought and of feminist theory over past decades. |
