Carefully melding theory with close readings of texts, the
contributors to this study explore the role of gender in the
struggle for narrative control of specific works by British writers
Jane Austen, Virginia Woolf, Anita Brookner, Angela Carter,
Jeanette Winterson and Mina Loy. This collection of 12 essays is
devoted to feminist narratology - the combination of feminist
theory with the study of the structures that underpin all
narratives. Until recently, narratology has resisted the advances
of feminism in part, as some contributors argue, because theory has
replicated past assumptions of male authority and point of view in
narrative. Feminist narratology, however, contextualizes the
cultural constructions of gender within its study of narrative
strategies. Nine of these essays are original, and three have been
revised for publication in this volume.
