What do academic stars like Andrew Ross or Edward Said have in common with provocative directors like Quentin Tarantino and Spike Lee? In her book, Susan Fraiman introduces the concept of "cool masculinity" and explores the gender politics in the work of men who fit into this category. Fraiman demonstrates that "cool" rebellious men actively distance themselves from the feminine, and their progressive reputations often conceal the underlying reproduction of patriarchal models. Acknowledging the cultural significance of these scholars and artists, the author invites a critical reading of their work, revealing the contradictory logic of "coolness." Unraveling complex gender codes and drawing on an intersectional approach, she offers not just a critique but a comprehensive rethinking of feminist optics for the 21st century. Susan Fraiman is a professor at the University of Virginia.
