The Feminism of Feminine Affect
Abstract: Feminine affect as a tool for analysis and resistance is explored through notions from the theory of affect (Ahmed, Ngai) and feminism critique (Hanisch). Centering on feminine affect, the three contemporary performances referenced (All the quiet in the world, The homemakers’ apocalypse and Under water) structure their dramaturgy and staging to create a space of healing and claiming autonomy for their protagonists. Within postdramatic and minimalist aesthetics, these herstories unravel under the pressure of affect, transforming female vulnerability into autonomy and agency.
