Surrealist women's writing: A critical exploration is the first
sustained critical inquiry into the writing of women associated
with surrealism. Featuring original essays by leading scholars of
surrealism, the volume demonstrates the extent and the historical,
linguistic, and culturally contextual breadth of this writing. It
also highlights how the specifically surrealist poetics and
politics of these writers' work intersect with and contribute to
contemporary debates on, for example, gender, sexuality,
subjectivity, otherness, anthropocentrism, and the environment.
Drawing on a variety of innovative theoretical approaches, the
essays in the volume focus on the writing of numerous women
surrealists, many of whom have hitherto mainly been known for their
visual rather than their literary production. These include Claude
Cahun, Leonora Carrington, Kay Sage, Colette Peignot, Suzanne
Cesaire, Unica Zurn, Ithell Colquhoun, Leonor Fini, Dorothea
Tanning, and Rikki Ducornet. -- .
