Rezension zu „Missing the Breast: Gender, Fantasy, and the Body in the German Enlightenment “
"A rich and complex book. [Richter] does nothing less than establish a 'regime' of the breast--linguistic, symbolic, political, and cultural--that stands over against, and potentially disrupts and destabilizes, what has come to be called (following Foucault and Lacan) the regime of the phallus... Written with exquisite and admirable lucidity, Missing the Breast is a far cry from the typical dry scholarly approach." Richard Gray, University of Washington "This book is exciting, original, clearly written, meticulously argued, subtle, and a pleasure to read. It offers a new and exciting view of discourses of the breast that have been overlooked by previous scholarship." Susan E. Gustafson, University of Rochester "An entertaining, theoretically sophisticated, and historically acute contribution to breast scholarship. Richter explains how we came to view the breast as we do today: as an objectified, commodified, morselized body part and as origin of a language that challenges the patriarchal order." Dianne F. Sadoff, Miami University
