Covering a wide variety of subjects and points of inquiry on women's sexuality, from genital anxieties about pubic hair to constructions of the body in the therapy room, this book offers a ground-breaking examination of women, sex, and madness, drawing from psychology, gender and sexuality studies, and cultural studies.Breanne Fahs argues that women's sexuality embodies a permanent state of tension between cultural impulses of destruction and selfishness contrasted with the fundamental possibilities of subversiveness and joy. Emphasizing cultural, social, and personal narratives about sexuality, Fahs asks readers to imagine sex, bodies, and madness as intertwined, and to see these narratives as fluid, contested, and changing. With topics as diverse as anarchist visions of sexual freedom, sexualized emotion work, lesbian haunted houses, and the insidious workings of capitalism, Fahs conceptualizes sexuality as a force of regressive moral panics and profound inequalities-deployed in both blatant and more subtle ways onto the body-while also finding hope and resistance in the possibilities of sexuality.By integrating clinical case studies, cultural studies, qualitative interviews, and original essays, Fahs offers a provocative new vision for sexuality that fuses together social anxieties and cultural madness through a critical feminist psychological approach. Fahs provides an original and accessible volume for students and academics in psychology, gender and sexuality studies, and cultural studies.

La philosophie peut-elle saisir ce qu'il y a de charnel, de déraisonnable et d'ineffable dans chaque histoire d'amour ? Pour Ruwen Ogien, la réponse ne fait aucun doute : le philosophe ne doit pas renoncer à ses ambitions intellectuelles devant l'émotion, le sentiment, la passion. Son projet ? Écrire un De l'amour rigoureux – quoique facétieux. L'« ami de la sagesse », irrespectueux, traite de cet obscur objet comme s'il s'agissait de n'importe quelle autre chose de la vie et s'interroge : l'amour est-il plus important que tout ? Peut-on aimer sans raison ? Ou sur commande ? L'amour se situe-t-il par-delà le bien et le mal ? Et, s'il ne dure pas, est-ce quand même un amour véritable ? Pas à pas, l'auteur déconstruit subtilement les présupposés de l'amour romantique.
