Michael Warner Knihy
Michael Warner je profesorem anglických a amerických studií na Yaleově univerzitě. Jeho práce se zaměřuje na vztah mezi literaturou, politikou a veřejným diskursem, zkoumá, jak jsou veřejné identity a formy komunikace formovány a jak se v průběhu času vyvíjejí. Warner analyzuje literární díla a sociální teorie, aby odhalil skryté mocenské struktury a ukázal, jak se formují a udržují různé druhy veřejnosti, často se soustředí na queer teorii a kritiku patriarchálních norem. Jeho přístup je hluboce teoretický a kritický, snaží se narušit ustálené představy o tom, co je „normální“ nebo „veřejné“.
