Fionnáin reviewed Excitable Speech by Judith Butler
Review of 'Excitable Speech' on 'GoodReads'
3 stars
A series of case studies on what constitutes 'speech', with an emphasis on American law and society. Unfortunately burdened with a lot of jargon, the content is very strong, particularly when it explores the role of the body in speech, and how hate-speech can be framed. Excellent at times.
