Bringing together twenty-seven established and emerging scholars, The Routledge Companion to Queer Literary Studies discusses the historical development, current state, future directions, and political stakes of queer literary studies as a field of research and pedagogy.
This innovative collection offers new frameworks for studying and teaching literature, art, film, music, theory, and philosophy from the medieval period to the twenty-first century. The contributors consider the structural implication of gender and sexuality with race, class, gender, ability, colonialism, capital, empire, and relationships between human and non-human life and matter.
The Routledge Companion to Queer Literary Studies is a vital resource for scholars, students, and teachers working across a range of historical periods, critical methods, and objects of study. It offers a multitude of approaches to queer literary studies, revealing the field to be as vital, and as contested, as ever.
Melissa E. Sanchez is Donald T. Regan Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Pennsylvania, USA. Her most recent books are Shakespeare and Queer Theory (2019) and Queer Faith: Reading Promiscuity and Race in the Secular Love Tradition (2019).
