A collection of sixteen essays--most of them previously unpublished--brings together leading scholars from a variety of disciplines, as well as prominent artists and filmmakers, to re-examine the enduring problem of fetishism. This book will engage and challenge a wide audience of academic and nonacademic readers, including specialists and students in the fields of anthropology, history, literature, film, psychoanalysis, visual arts, feminist theory, Marxian criticism, and cultural studies.
