Autotheories

A transdisciplinary array of authors offering a new frame of reference for autotheory and its genre-bending synthesis of autobiography and critical theory.

Chapters stage encounters among autoethnography, autofiction, and creative nonfiction, social movements, BIPOC feminisms, poststructuralism, psychoanalysis, trans and queer studies, disability studies, and new media studies. An assemblage and an experience, Without settling for classification or bowing to ossification,
