THE SLEEPING HERMAPHRODITE: WAKING UP FROM A LETHARGIC CONFINEMENT by Various Authors

102 x 162mm, 96 pages, Colour printing, Perfect bound, Softcover, 2022

What has been the role of aesthetic and historical canons in the construction of the female and male genders? Is ‘the sleeping Hermaphrodite’ really asleep? Or has she/he been induced to a long lethargic state, punished and confined by the history of gender normalization?
