Description
Gender Without Identity offers an innovative and thought-provoking theory of gender formation. By rethinking traditional notions of core identity, Avgi Saketopoulou and Ann Pellegrini propose that gender is something all subjects acquire, shaped by trauma and wounding experiences.
This book argues for the importance of recognizing how traumatic legacies can be spun into gender, enabling greater understanding and flourishing. It also provides clinical resources for working with complex gender issues, challenging traditional notions of normativity. Shortlisted for the 2024 Gradiva Award, Gender Without Identity is a valuable contribution to psychoanalytic thought.
