Joan Riviere
Joan Riviere (1883-1962) was a prominent British psychoanalyst known for her work in the early 20th century that explored themes of femininity and gender identity. She is best remembered for her concept of 'femininity as a masquerade,' suggesting that women's identities are often performative and constructed in response to societal expectations. Riviere's theories contributed significantly to psychoanalytic discourse, particularly in understanding the complexities of female psychology and the implications of gender roles. Her insights remain relevant in contemporary discussions surrounding gender and identity.
