Elizabeth Meese
Elizabeth Meese was an American academic who specialized in feminist theory. She was a professor at the University of Alabama, in the English Department, which named an award for her, the "Elizabeth Meese Memorial Award in Feminist Theory".[1]
With her partner, creative writing professor Sandy Huss, she has published essays that combine theoretical writing with fiction, as in the collection Lesbian Erotics.[2] An essay of hers in an anthology edited by Karla Jay and Joanne Glasgow, Lesbian Texts and Contexts, was praised by one reviewer for "suggestively wander[ing] through problems of meaning and representation, ruminating on the connections among desire, lesbian identity, and writing".[3]
