This article pursues the hypothesis that there is a structural affinity between the case study as a genre of writing and the question of gendered subjectivity.

I establish a conversation between distinct, psychoanalytically informed feminisms (Simone de Beauvoir, Juliet Mitchell, Judith Butler, and Denise Riley) to move from the mid-20th century to contemporary cultural debate.
