Spanning several chapters, it explores this influence through innovative lenses, such as Hortense Spillers's and Jack Halberstam's interpretations of Paule Marshall's fiction and Bram Stoker's Dracula, respectively. The book also examines the complex and often controversial reception of Kristeva's writings on French feminism, semiotics, and psychoanalytic theory in the United States, particularly in relation to marginalized populations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral examples are provided to illustrate this point, including Kelly Oliver and Benigno Trigo's analysis of Orson Welles's The Lady from Shanghai and Touch of Evil, as well as Frances Restuccia's examination of David Lynch's Mulholland Drive. Carol Mastrangelo Bové contributes significantly to the dialogue with American critics by examining Kristeva's perspective on the United States through her essays and fiction. Like them, Bové incorporates Kristeva's thought into her creative readings of lesser-known authors and directors, such as Christiane Rochefort, Nancy Savoca, and Frank Lentricchia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis multifaceted exploration of Kristeva's influence on American literary and film studies offers a rich and insightful perspective, shedding light on the enduring legacy of her thought in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 188g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030599140\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2020\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carol Mastrangelo Bove","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103092338938,"sku":"9783030599140","price":41.64,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646134907130_book.jpg?v=1646906546","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/kristeva-in-america-reimagining-the-exceptional-9783030599140","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
