Queer Events: Post-deconstructive Subjectivities in Spanish Writing and Film 1960s-1990s

Queer Events studies the representations of queer subjectivities during the Spanish Transition era (1960s to 1990s), drawing on some of the most influential critical theorists and philosophers of our times (Gilles Deleuze, Giorgio Agamben, Alain Badiou). The book focuses on well-known Spanish authors and film-makers (Terenci Moix, Vicente Aranda) as well as on others who have merited far less critical attention so far (including Antonio Roig, Alberto Cardin, and the directors of the short-lived avant-garde film movement known as ‘Escuela de Barcelona’).
