Description
Summary:"La femme n'existe pas -- this thesis revolves around the question whether Kristeva's semiotic chora, an adaptation of Lacan's imaginary realm, can be seen as a space of female opposition to patriarchal hegemony. Thus, different ways of female interaction with patriarchy will be investigated; thereby drawing upon verbal and non-verbal texts from different centuries. Shakespeare's Hamlet and Angela Carter's Bloody Chamber will be considered as well as Pre-Raffaelite paintings."--Page 4, cover.
