Autotheory as Feminist Practice in Art, Writing, and Criticism
Autotheory--the commingling of theory and philosophy with autobiography--as a mode of critical artistic practice indebted to feminist writing and activism. In the 2010s, the term "autotheory" began to trend in literary spheres, where it was used to describe books in which memoir and autobiography fused with theory and philosophy. In this book, Lauren Fournier extends the meaning of the term, applying it to other disciplines and practices. Fournier provides a long-awaited account of autotheory, situating it as a mode of contemporary, post-1960s artistic practice that is indebted to feminist writing, art, and activism. Investigating a series of works by writers and artists including Chris Kraus and Adrian Piper, she considers the politics, aesthetics, and ethics of autotheory.

Commando Joe: Lt. Joseph Fournier Marine Raider
Merriam Press World War 2 Biography1st Lt. Joseph Fournier was KIA on Peleliu's Bloody Nose Ridge, one of the courageous officers leading an infantry company of the 1st Marines in September 1944. He died exactly twenty-four months to the day of accepting his commission as an officer in the USMCR. Seventy years after his death the need to record his story came from a Marine who served in Lt Fournier's Company, a niece's need to fulfill her mother's wishes and newspaper clippings kept by his mother - almost lost to a shredder. A life tangled with famous names and organizations, Lt Fournier, known as "Commando Joe" to his Marines, was a man who would still fit in with the Marines of today. He was a Sea Worthy Marine, a Raider before the battalions were fully functional and a member of "The Old Breed."26 photos.
