'Queer: A Graphic History Could Totally Change the Way You Think About Sex and Gender' Vice Activist-academic Meg-John Barker and cartoonist Julia Scheele illuminate the histories of queer thought and LGBTQ+ action in this groundbreaking non-fiction graphic novel. From identity politics and gender roles to privilege and exclusion, Queer explores how we came to view sex, gender and sexuality in the ways that we do; how these ideas get tangled up with our culture and our understanding of biology, psychology and sexology; and how these views have been disputed and challenged. Along the way we look at key landmarks which shift our perspective of whats normal Alfred Kinseys view of sexuality as a spectrum, Judith Butlers view of gendered behaviour as a performance, the play Wicked, or moments in Casino Royale when were invited to view James Bond with the kind of desiring gaze usually directed at female bodies in mainstream media. Presented in a brilliantly engaging and witty style, this is a unique portrait of the universe of queer thinking.… (más)

This wasn’t a history of queerness or queer people, but rather something akin to the historiagraphy of queer academic theories and their intersection, over time, with other emergent schools of thought like critical race theory and feminism. Accordingly, I find it hard to call it a history at all, as queer people were absent (a bit ironic, as there is an emphasis on queer is doing rather than being). The only “people” were the authors of the various theories. Told in news-bite sized text with illustrations, which helped break up the tedium of academic jargon, I struggled to be drawn in. ( )

Se bazzicate luoghi – fisici e/o virtuali – femministi e LGBTQIA+ è probabile che vi siate imbattutə nelle teorie queer: forse non ve ne siete nemmeno accortə, e non per colpa vostra. Infatti, le teorie queer sembrano come il prezzemolo: paiono onnipresenti e a volte ti si incastrano tra i denti senza che tu ne sia consapevole e vostro malgrado mostreranno la loro verdezza allə vostrə interlocuteri.

Il primo problema delle teorie queer e quello di essere estremamente oscure: la stragrande maggioranza dellə suə esponenti non scrive per la divulgazione e la stragrande maggioranza di noi non ha i mezzi per sbrogliare quella massa di ragionamenti filosofici.

Il secondo problema delle teorie queer sono lə detratteri che, con l’intenzione di demolirle, ne forniscono una versione ultrasemplificata da usare a proprio comodo – e parlando di una materia davvero complessa, hanno davvero gioco facile, visto che quasi nessunə ha le conoscenze per puntualizzare e di questə ancora meno avranno voglia di azzuffarsi sui social.

Queer. A Graphic History è il libro perfetto per iniziare a orientarsi tra le varie teorie queer e coloro che le hanno teorizzate. È scritto in maniera molto semplice e concisa, ma senza essere sciatto: i fumetti di Scheele aiutano la comprensione delle spiegazioni di Barker, che partono dalle fondamenta delle teorie queer fino alle nuove frontiere di riflessione, includendo anche una panoramica delle maggiori critiche.

Purtroppo per il momento è disponibile soltanto in inglese, ma posso rassicurarvi sul fatto che sia un libro di facile lettura: mi è sembrato un’ottima guida per approcciarsi alle teorie queer e allo stesso tempo un ottimo trampolino di lancio per approfondirle ulteriormente. ( )

Solid intro and/or review of Queer Theory. Impressed by the amount of information covered in such a short book. Great jumping off point to learn more. ( )

This is a good place to start learning about queer history and theories. Some of it I already knew, but I did learn a few new ideas as well. This also fit a category for the Book Riot Read Harder challenge. ( )
