Synopses & Reviews
In Sappho Goes to Law School, Ruthann Robson weaves together concepts taken from traditional legal theory, postmodernism, feminist theory, and queer theory, as well as her own personal experience in the courtroom and classroom, to take stock of the complexities of lesbian identity and the often detrimental ways in which legal scholarship approaches lesbianism.
Review
"Sappho Goes to Law School is distinctively necessary, valuable, and comprehensive. It serves the vital purpose of providing a deep, well-researched, lesbian-centered commentary on the development and status of U.S. law, both substantive and procedural." Mary C. Dunlap, Civil rights attorney and professor of law
