Sinossi
«Cominciai a riflettere su Antigone anni addietro, quando mi domandavo cosa ne fosse dei tentativi delle femministe di confrontarsi con lo Stato e di sfidarlo. Mi pareva che Antigone potesse contrapporsi alla tendenza a cercare l’appoggio e l’autorità dello Stato per realizzare gli scopi politici del femminismo per i quali le nuove femministe lottavano. Sembrava che, negli sforzi contemporanei volti a ricomporre l’opposizione politica in una istanza legale e a cercare la legittimazione dello Stato nell’adozione delle rivendicazioni femministe, l’eredità della sfida di Antigone fosse andata perduta. In realtà troviamo Antigone difesa e sostenuta da Luce Irigaray, per esempio, che la identifica con il principio della sfida femminile allo statalismo e ne fa un esempio di antiautoritarismo...». Così inizia questo libro in cui, con le posizioni di Irigaray, sono discusse anche quelle di Lacan e il riferimento a Foucault introduce una nuova apertura sui temi della identità e del rapporto con la politica.

Recensioni
Not only did I like this book, but I was surprised and pleased with how comprehensible it was. Judith Butler has a reputation for opaque writing, so I figured I was in for 80 pages of suffering, but it really wasn't bad. I did struggle a little because this book is so thoroughly based in Sophocles'

People often complain about Judith Butler's labyrinthine writing style, but that's never been my main problem with her. What don't like about her work is a) she often misreads key French thinkers (Foucault, for instance, in Gender Trouble) and b) she has an underlying political project that, while I Leggi tutto
Magical, maddening, provocative, poorly argued. It occurs to me that Antigone's attachment of great importance to the burying of her brother's body, which is obviously culturally obtained, starkly weakens many of Butler's and others' arguments regarding Antigone's position in or outside of society a Leggi tutto
This is actually one of Judith Butler's most readable books. It starts from the Lacanian premise of "what if pyschoanalysis had taken Antigone rather than Oedipus as its starting point?" I actually was inspired to create my own performance of Antigone while reading this book, and as an artist and an Leggi tutto
Como seria estruturada a psicanálise se Freud tivesse partido de Antígona e não de Édipo? Em muitos sentidos, Butler revisita essa pergunta de modo a expandir aquilo que a filosofia e a psicanálise leram historicamente nas entrelinhas da peça de Sófocles. Mas o livro pretende lançar-se enquanto prov Leggi tutto
Είναι από τα βιβλία για τα οποία ντρέπομαι να βάλω βαθμολογία. Τα 5 αστέρια είναι λίγα για να εκφράσουν τον ενθουσιασμό μου που επιτέλους το διάβασα. Η Butler αυτή τη φορά με συγκλόνισε με ερωτήματα γύρω από την πολιτισμική απαγόρευση της αιμομιξίας, πάντα μέσα στο πεδίο της κανονιστική ετεροφυλοφιλ Leggi tutto
a really challenging reworking of the antigone myth for modern political activism. Butler uses the story of antigone to queer concepts such as kinship and family for a feminist reworking of systems of power and obligation. it's a handfull but really pushes readers in new directions.
One of the better Butler books. Digs into Antigone using Hegel, Levi-Strauss, Lacan and others to critique an entire Western philosophical tradition built on the crumbling pillars of heteronormativity and the nuclear family via the incest taboo. I would've liked to see a little more of what Butler n Leggi tutto
Admittedly, quite a lot of this went over my head, but I managed to glean a few salient points that will keep me thinking about this work and likely have me returning to it. 1. This text certainly put kinship on the radar for me as something that can be actively complicated. My general understanding Leggi tutto
