Abstract:In Bodies that Matter, Judith Butler examed the material dimensions of the construction of "sex" and "body", which continued the topic of performative theory in the last book Gender Trouble. Initially, she used the power theory of Foucault to sketch the body's topography of construction. Consequently, the assumption of sex was phantasmatic identification within the psychoanalysis, although Freud and Lacan was phallocentrism. In the end, through a critical engagement with Slavoj Zizek's performative theory of names, Butler provided the resignification function of names could show us the agency of subject.
