Author Description

"The role of this book is to consider the intersection between visual cultures and the most significant developments in critical theory over the last fifty years. This includes issues and concepts from psychoanalysis, philosophy, cultural theory, postmodernism, feminism, Queer theory, gender studies, and narrative theory. Visual Cultures and Critical Theory aims to provide an interplay between the image and recent developments in the humanities." "Visual Cultures and Critical Theory will provide students with a clear guide for understanding ideas of critical theory through the visual."--Jacket.
