Nevertheless the question of sexual difference still remains. <I>Sex Breath and Force</I> asks how we should approach such a questioning today given the fall of the great narratives and the plethora of theoretical discourses in circulation. What are the conditions of possibility for thinking of sexual difference as a foundational problem in the age of technology? And how do the disciplines of social science literary studies philosophy and film studies answer this challenge?<BR />This collection of essays provides a reassessment of the question of sexual difference taking into account important shifts in feminist thought post-humanist theories and queer studies. The contributors offer new and refreshing insights into the complex question of sexual difference from a post-feminist perspective and how it is reformulated in various related areas of study such as ontology epistemology metaphysics biology technology and mass media.
