Winner of the Society for the Study of Early Modern Women's
Collaborative Book Prize 2017 Rethinking Feminism in Early Modern
Studies is a volume of essays by leading scholars in the field of
early modern studies on the history, present state, and future
possibilities of feminist criticism and theory. It responds to
current anxieties that feminist criticism is in a state of decline
by attending to debates and differences that have emerged in light
of ongoing scholarly discussions of race, affect, sexuality, and
transnationalism-work that compels us continually to reassess our
definitions of 'women' and gender. Rethinking Feminism demonstrates
how studies of early modern literature, history, and culture can
contribute to a reimagination of feminist aims, methods, and
objects of study at this historical juncture. While the scholars
contributing to Rethinking Feminism have very different interests
and methods, they are united in their conviction that early modern
studies must be in dialogue with, and indeed contribute to, larger
theoretical and political debates about gender, race, and
sexuality, and to the relationship between these areas. To this
end, the essays not only analyze literary texts and cultural
practices to shed light on early modern ideology and politics, but
also address metacritical questions of methodology and theory.
Taken together, they show how a consciousness of the complexity of
the past allows us to rethink the genealogies and historical stakes
of current scholarly norms and debates.
