"Identity" is one of the most hotly debated topics in literary theory and cultural studies. This bold and groundbreaking collection of ten essays argues that identity is not just socially constructed but has real epistemic and political consequences for how people experience the world. Advocating a "postpositivist realist" approach to identity, the essays examine the ways in which theory, politics, and activism clash with or complement each other, providing an alternative to the widely influential postmodernist understandings of identity. Although theoretical in orientation, this dynamic collection deals with specific social groups--Chicanas/os, African Americans, gay men and lesbians, Asian Americans, and others--and concrete social issues directly related to race, ethnicity, sexuality, epistemology, and political resistance.
Satya Mohanty's brilliant exegesis of Toni Morrison's Beloved serves as a launching pad for the collection. The essays that follow, written by prominent and up-and-coming scholars, address a range of topics--from the writings of Cherrie Moraga, Franz Fanon, Joy Kogawa, and Michael Nava to the controversy surrounding racial program housing on college campuses--and work toward a truly interdisciplinary approach to identity.

William Tecumseh Sherman possessed not only the most unusual middle name, but also the most orginal mind among Civil War generals His great campaign of destruction through the South was 100 years ahead of its time and foreshadowed both the totality and mobility of WW II. His mind was imaginative and uncompromising, and no matter our profession, we can study its working with profit.

"Liddell Hart was a great interpretive historian. He saw into the heart of things. He wrote with clarity and intelligence about men and events. His analyses, concerned as they are chiefly with conflict, cut through the superfluous and deal with bedrock issues of character and intelligence, qualities that determine how each of us fares in life." (B-O-T Editorial Review Board).
