From the rear cover
In Telling Flesh, Vicki Kirby addresses a major theoretical issue at the intersection of the social sciences and feminist theory - the separation of nature from culture. Kirby focuses particularly on postmodern approaches to corporeality, and explores how these approaches confine the body within questions of meaning and interpretation. Kirby explores the implications of this containment in the works of Jane Gallop, Judith Butler, and Drucilla Cornell, as well as in recent cyber-criticism. By analyzing the inadvertent repetition of nature/culture division in this work, Kirby offers a powerful reassessment of dualism itself.
