The Routledge Companion to Queer Literary Studies
About this book
Bringing together twenty-seven established and emerging scholars, The Routledge Companion to Queer Literary Studies discusses the historical development, current state, future directions, and political stakes of queer literary studies as a field of research and pedagogy.
This innovative collection offers new frameworks for studying and teaching literature, art, film, music, theory, and philosophy from the medieval period to the twenty-first century. The contributors consider the structural implication of gender and sexuality with race, class, gender, ability, colonialism, capital, empire, and relationships between human and non-human life and matter.
The Routledge Companion to Queer Literary Studies is a vital resource for scholars, students, and teachers working across a range of historical periods, critical methods, and objects of study. It offers a multitude of approaches to queer literary studies, revealing the field to be as vital, and as contested, as ever.
