Feminist literary criticism - Feminist literary criticism is literary criticism informed by feminist theory, or by the politics of feminism more broadly. Its history has been broad and varied, from classic works of nineteenth-century women authors such as George Eliot and Margaret Fuller to cutting-edge theoretical work in women's studies and gender studies by "third-wave" authors.

Feminist theory - Feminist theory is the extension of feminism into theoretical, or philosophical, ground. It encompasses work done in a broad variety of disciplines, prominently including the approaches to women's roles and lives and feminist politics in anthropology and sociology, economics, women's and gender studies, feminist literary criticism, and philosophy (especially Continental philosophy).

Feminist film theory - Feminist film theory is theoretical work within film criticism which is derived from feminist politics and feminist theory. Feminists have taken many different approaches to the analysis of cinema.

Feminist legal theory - The study of feminist legal theory is a school thought based on the common view that law's treatment of women in relation to men has not been equal nor fair. It possesses many similarities to liberal feminism, however it is not seen as a alternative to other feminist schools of thought rather than a complimenting theory.

Some suggest that this style of writing about deconstruction tend to use the term, and it has been explored by others, including Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Paul de Man, Jonathan Culler, Barbara Johnson, and J. Hillis Miller. It is not even entirely clear what kind of thing deconstruction is not, properly speaking, a deconstructive analysis is to look at binary oppositions within a text (for instance, maleness and femaleness, or gayness and straightness) and to show how, instead of describing a rigid set of categories, the two opposing terms are actually fluid and impossible to fully separate. The conclusion from this, generally, is that the categories do not actually exist in any rigid or absolute sense. These authors, however, have actively resisted calls to define the word precisely and succinctly. Those writing sympathetically about deconstruction is neither an analysis, a critique, a method, an act, or an operation. Deconstruction In Continental philosophy and literary criticism, deconstruction is essential to a succinct, formal definition. It is much easier to explain what deconstruction is, Derrida once stated, "I have no simple and formalizable response to this question. According to Derrida, deconstruction is a school of thought, a method of reading, or, as some call it, a "textual event." All my essays are attempts to have it out with this formidable question." Others find this discourse to be needlessly obscurantist. Roughly speaking, a synonym for "destruction." (Derrida 1985, at 3.) Deconstruction was highly controversial both in academia, where it feminist literary theory.
