Feminist Formalism and Early Modern Women's Writing reexamines the
relationship between gender and form in early modern women's
writing in essays that elaborate the specific literary strategies
of women writers, that examine women's debts to and appropriations
of different literary genres, and that offer practical suggestions
for the teaching of women's texts in several different contexts.
Contributors explore the possibility of feminist formalism, a
methodology that both attends to the structural, rhetorical, and
other formal techniques of a given text and takes gender as a
central category of analysis. This collection contends that
feminist formalism is a useful tool for scholars of the early
modern period and for literary studies more broadly because it
marries the traditional questions of formalism-including questions
of style, genre, and literary history-with the political and
cultural concerns of feminist inquiry. Contributors reposition
works by important women writers-such as Margaret Cavendish, Hester
Pulter, Mary Wroth, and Katherine Philips-as central to the
development of English literary tradition. By examining a variety
of texts written by women, including recipes, emblems, exchanges,
and poetry, Feminist Formalism and Early Modern Women's Writing
contributes to existing scholarship on early modern women's writing
while extending it in new and important directions.
