La discussion théorique, visant à circonscrire avec plus de netteté le concept cible, est présente non seulement dans l’article d’ouverture qui revient sur la conception guillaumienne de l’expressivité, mais aussi dans l’ensemble des autres articles qui s’attachent à donner une (des) définition(s) opératoire(s) de la notion permettant, d’une part, de tracer une ligne de partage entre elle et les notions proches, et d’autre part de fournir une base méthodologique sûre lorsqu’il s’agit d’analyser des phénomènes langagiers touchant à des niveaux aussi divers que la morphologie lexicale, le lexique ou l’analyse du discours.

American women novelists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries registered a call for a new sexual freedom, Dale Bauer contends. By creating a lexicon of ""sex expression,"" many authors explored sexuality as part of a discourse about women's needs rather than confining it to the realm of sentiments, where it had been relegated (if broached at all) by earlier writers.

In essays that show how her groundbreaking work in queer theory has developed into a deep interest in affect, Sedgwick offers what she calls "tools and techniques for nondualistic thought," in the process touching and transforming such theoretical discourses as psychoanalysis, speech-act theory, Western Buddhism, and the Foucauldian "hermeneutics of suspicion."In prose sometimes somber, often high-spirited, and always accessible and moving, Touching Feeling interrogates-through virtuoso readings of works by Henry James, J.

Ultimately, Sedgwick's unfashionable commitment to the truth of happiness propels a book as open-hearted as it is intellectually daring.
