Editorial Reviews
Book Description

Feminist Film Studies provides an introduction to feminist film theory as a discourse from the early seventies to the present. Janet McCabe traces the broad-ranging theories produced by feminist film scholarship, from formalist readings and psychoanalytical approaches to debates initiated by cultural studies, race, and queer theory. This book thus documents a dynamic critical field, charting the numerous feminist interventions to critically think about how the social, political, and cultural contexts informed debates and shaped the writing of a feminist film theory.
