  • DISABILITY AND SEXUALITY IN ZIMBABWE
    CHRISTINE PETA
    Disabled women represent one of the most marginalised minority groups in the world, hence they are largely silent while their sexuality is ignored, suppressed, forbidden and buried underneath the carpet.

  • PERFORMING EMOTIONS
    PETA TAIT
    In Performing Emotions, Peta Tait's central argument is that performing emotions in realism is also performing gender identity.

  • CARTOGRAPHIC STRATEGIES OF POSTMODERNITY
    PETA MITCHELL
    The last fifty years have witnessed the growing pervasiveness of the figure of the map in critical, theoretical, and fictional discourse. References to mapping and cartography are endemic in poststructuralist theory, and, similarly, geographically and culturally diverse authors of twentieth-century fiction seem fixated upon mapping. While the map metaphor has been employed for ...

    PETA BOWDEN
    In Caring, Peta Bowden extends and challenges recent debates on feminist ethics. She takes issue with accounts of the ethics of care that focus on alleged principles of caring rather than analysing caring in practice. Caring, Bowden argues, must be understood by 'working through examples'. Following this approach, Bowden explores four main caring practices: mothering, friendshi...
