Straight Studies Modified

Lesbian Interventions in the Academy

Sonya Andermahr ; Gabriele Griffin

This text examines the degree of lesbian presence throughout higher education. Contributors analyze issues such as the notion of specifically lesbian knowledge in various academic disciplines, the impact of lesbian feminism and of queer on the emergence of lesbians within higher education, and the problem of incorporating lesbian studies within the academy. From the pessimistic to the celebratory, contributors examine the effects lesbians as activists, teachers and researchers have had, and continue to have, on changing disciplines and the academy.
