About this listen
In our very first episode of Gender Trouble, we begin where Judith Butler begins—at the thresholds of the text itself. Focusing on the Prefaces from the 1990 and 1999 editions, we trace Butler’s motivations, the political and theoretical context of the book’s emergence, and how Gender Trouble unexpectedly became a cornerstone of queer theory. What does it mean to trouble gender? Why revisit and revise the introduction nearly a decade later? And how does Butler grapple with the unintended uses and readings of her work? Join us as we set the stage for a journey into performativity, identity, and the subversive potential of doing gender differently.
