The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-vegetarian Critical TheoryContinuum, 1990 - 256 páginas The author compares myths about meat-eating with myths about manliness, and seeks to explore the literary, scientific, and social connections between meat-eating, male dominance, and war. Drawing on such sources as butchering texts, cookbooks, Victorian hygiene manuals, and Alice Walker, the author argues in favor of linking feminist and vegetarian theory. |
