Funded Activity Summary

Germaine Greer, celebrity and popular feminism. This project aims to evaluate Germaine Greer’s contribution to popular understandings of feminism. It will use newly available archival material to examine Greer's global influence as a celebrity feminist. The project will assess Greer’s writing and its effect on her audiences, her interventions into various forms of media, and how her public persona has been constructed including her own role in this process. It will consider why she remains such a highly visible and contested feminist figure. This project expects to understand how feminist ideas circulate in the public domain.
