THINKING QUEER KNOWLEDGE WITH AND WITHOUT FOUCAULT, Visiting Speaker
MASSIMO PREARO
Michel Foucault’s The History of Sexuality (1976) is a paradigm for academicians in gay and lesbian studies, gender studies, and queer theory. Yet it and the academic knowledge it has spawned have ignored or
dismissed other forms of knowledge derived from direct political experience of sexuality recognized by theorists such as Hocquenghem, Wittig, and de Lauretis.
