Queer Theories explores and aggressively expands the provocative new field of sexual identity studies. It covers the history of the terms 'gay' and 'lesbian' as identity categories, the reclamation of the word 'queer' as a term of radical self-identification, and the recent challenges to sexual identity studies posed by transgender and bisexual theories. Donald E. Hall also offers concrete applications of the abstract theories that he explores with imaginative new readings of works such as 'The Yellow Wallpaper', Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Orlando and The Color Purple

"This is a short and accessible introduction to the complex and evolving debates around queer theories, advocating for their critical role in academia and society.

Wie sehen die vergeschlechtlichten Kodierungen, Metaphern und Allegorien des Gedächtnisses aus? Welche Bedeutung kommt dabei der Materialität der Körper zu? Wie greifen performative Prozesse in Empfindungen ein? In den Beiträgen dieses Bandes treffen Ansätze queer-feministischer Geschichtsschreibungen und biographische Erzählungen auf programmatische Untersuchungen der Verstrickungen von Geschlecht

Is the United States a heterosexual regime? If it is, how may we understand the political position of those who cannot or will not align themselves with heterosexuality? With these provocative questions, Shane Phelan raises the issue of whether lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgendered people can be seen as citizens at all. Can citizenship be made queer?
