| | FLUXEUROPA: CAMILLE PAGLIA |
 | | Paglia was catapulted into media stardom when, following publication of her book, Sexual Personae, in 1992, she achieved fame if not infamy with expressions of her admiration for Madonna, and her involvement in bitter public controversies about 'date rape' and the state of academe. |
 | | Handsome, sharp and vigorous, exuberant, manic and abusive are just some of the adjectives which can and have been applied to Camille Paglia, the motor-mouthed academic and cultural critic of Italian-American background and 'wavering sexual orientation'. |
 | | Difficult to put into a neat, preconceived, pigeon-hole, she has been accused of being both an anti-feminist and a neoconservative, while claiming, herself, to be a genuine libertarian whose cultural critiques have merely upset the feminist party line and the academic gravy train. |
