Hysteria is a siiiick feminist publication, a non-profit periodical and platform for feminist activism.[1]

History

Launched in the back of a butcher shop by a group of pornographers from the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London,[2] HYSTERIA aims to be a platform for radical creative discourse about feminism encompassing poetry, meat, text and visual arts.

Hysteria is sold as a quarterly publication. Examples of themes from early publications were: 'BackLash'; 'Roles and Rules'; 'Antagonism' and 'Abjection'.

Hysteria can be purchased in London at Housmans,[3] ICA and Foyles bookshops as well as internationally where it is available in thirteen countries with launches in Berlin, [4] Paris[5] and New York (2014 and 2015).[6][7] Each issue has been crowd funded to cover basic printing costs.[8]
