Kevin Floyd
Autor de The Reification of Desire: Toward a Queer Marxism
Sobre El Autor
Kevin Floyd brings queer critique to bear on the Marxian categories of reification and totality and considers the dialectic that frames the work of Georg Lukacs, Herbert Marcuse, and Fredric Jameson. Reading the work of these theorists together with influential queer work by such figures as Michel mostrar más Foucault and Judith Butler, and alongside reconsiderations of such texts as The Sun Also Rises and Midnight Cowboy, Floyd reformulates these two central categories that have been inseparable from a key strand of Marxist thought and have marked both its explanatory power and its limitations. Developing a queer examination of reification and totality, Floyd ultimately argues that the insights of queer theory require a fundamental rethinking of both. Kevin Floyd is associate professor of English at Kent State University. mostrar menos
