From daughter to woman—between the symbolic structures of patriarchy and libidinal-physical dependence on the father—Frauen und Film 48 explores this dual position of female socialization in various contributions.

Teresa de Lauretis proposes alternative readings of the Oedipus myth. Tanja Modleski examines the subtexts of femininity in Hitchcock’s shrill portrayals. Heide Schlüpmann demonstrates, in William Wyler’s film The Heiress , how technical and formal spatial constructions are mediated by the hierarchies of the father-daughter relationship. Renate Lippert takes up the incest motif in Polanski’s Chinatown.

This complete monograph explores the connections between these two practices, and in addition provides a general introduction to a remarkable body of work. Illustrated throughout, the monograph also includes several essays, texts by Sharits and interviews.
