Linda Williams: What about Porn Studies (2/5)
What about PORN STUDIES
•
11m
Hi! I am Patrick Catuz and in my Series „What about PORN STUDIES?“ I want to promote the rather new and vibrant academic field of Porn Studies.
This is the interview with Linda Williams who is a Film Studies Professor at the University of Berkeley and originally worked on the topic of musicals and melodramas. She is the pioneer of Porn Studies. When I met her at the Academy of fine Arts in Vienna, she gave a speech at an event called „Feminist Idols“. President of the University, Andrea Braidt, introduced her as the „Mother of Porn Studies“. Linda Williams countered jokingly: „The grandmother maybe“. We sat down for a chat later on.
