The Language of Hysteria: A Misappropriation of the Master Narratives |
|
| Authors: | Elisabeth Bronfen |
| Abstract: | Bronfen discusses the language of hysteria in conjunction with recent discussions of ethics, notably in the sense that the hysteric gesture of misappropriating a grand narrative such as humanism confronts the manner in which discussions of gender might traverse alterity without effacing or occluding it. |
