In this major contribution to lesbian theory and cultural studies, Lydia Hart explores how the shadow of the lesbian animates representations of violent women in literature, plays, film and performance.
Starting from the historical link between criminality and sexual deviancy, Lynda Hart builds a complex and original theory in which the shadow of the lesbian animates representations of violent women in literature, plays, films and performance. Chapters detail this theory in diverse areas, including: * Frank Wedekind''s Lulu Plays * Thelma and Louise and Basic Instinct * the performance art of Karen Finley in the context of censorship debates * The Split Britches'' performance Lesbians Who Kill Fatal Women is a major contribution to lesbian theory and cultural studies. It is a challenging, stimulating and rewarding study.
