Summary:

An inquiry into the phenomenology of “woman” based in the relationship between lived time and sexual violenceFeminist phenomenologists have long understood a woman’s life as inhibited, confined, and constrained by sexual violence. In this important inquiry, author Megan Burke builds and expands on this legacy by examining the production of normative womanhood through racist tropes and colonial domination, charting a new feminist phenomenology based in the relationship between lived time and sexual violence.
