Louise Du Toit examines the phenomenon of rape with a feminist philosophical discourse concerning women's or 'feminine' subjectivity and selfhood. She demonstrates how the hierarchical dichotomy of male active versus female passive sexuality - which obscures the true nature of rape - is embedded in the dominant western symbolic frame. Through a Hegelian and phenomenological reading of first-person accounts by rape victims, she excavates an understanding of rape that also starts to open up a way out of the denial and destruction of female sexual subjectivity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46930010505367,"sku":"9780415990295","price":12029.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780415990295.webp?v=1771604180","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-philosophical-investigation-of-rape-the-making-and-unmaking-of-the-feminine-self-9780415990295","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
