About the Book
Figures of Resistancebrings together crucial essays and unpublished lectures of internationally renowned theorist Teresa de Lauretis, spanning twenty years of her finest work. De Lauretis's rigorous thought and elegant writing interrogate how cinema, literature, and psychoanalytic theory construct and deconstruct gender, sexuality, and ways of knowing. This collection invites us to reflect on the history of feminist theory and its power to envision anew issues of representation, reading, and epistemology. Essays include "Sexual Indifference and Lesbian Representation," "The Lure of the Mannish Lesbian," "Eccentric Subjects," "Habit Changes," "The Intractability of Desire," and the unpublished title essay "Figures of Resistance."An introduction by feminist film scholar Patricia White provides an overview of the development and essential contribution of de Lauretis's thought.

Em , a autora italiana Teresa de Lauretis publicou seu livro de maior destaque, Technologies of gender: essays on Theory, Film and Fiction. No livro, a pesquisadora desenvolve o conceito de tecnologia de gênero, que havia começado a esmiuçar anteriormente em Alice Doesn&#;t: feminism, semiotics, cinema (). A autora parte da conceituação de Michel Foucault de tecnologia sexual para propor que “também o gênero, como representação e como auto-representação, é produto de diferentes tecnologias sociais, como o cinema” (De Lauretis, , p. ).
Em concordância com Scott, De Lauretis aponta o gênero como uma categoria relacional, afirmando que ele:
constrói uma relação entre uma entidade e outras entendidas previamente constituídas como uma classe, uma relação de pertencer; assim, o gênero atribui a uma entidade, digamos a uma pessoa, certa posição dentro de uma classe, e portanto uma posição vis-à-vis outras classes pré-constituídas.[&#;] Assim, gênero representa não um indivíduo e sim uma relação, uma relação social; em outras palavras, representa um indivíduo por meio de uma classe.
