Wright’s scholarly interests include theories and modes of self-representation and feminist philosophy.

Her new book explores the vexed nature of being a woman. It maps the four corners of impossible choice a female faces because of the female body--her body as spiritual space (Mary), as political space (Athena), as erotic space (Venus), and as materialist space (Barbie). The book tracks the difficulty women face in understanding themselves as someone who has, but is not only, a body.

Later, guest interviewer, Dr. Laine Scales, talks with Dr. Blake Burleson, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Religion and Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies at Baylor University, and Dr. Burt Burleson, University Chaplain at Baylor. The Burlesons discovered some interesting family history as the university began their Commission on Historic Campus Representations. The Burlesons were surprised to learn in the process that that their ancestor, twice president of Baylor University, was a promoter of the Lost Cause. This is the idea that God was on the side of the South and that white supremacy was divinely ordained.
