This innovative collection of contemporary essays in feminist
literary criticism provides a spectrum of approaches and positions,
united by their common focus on writing by and about women.
Spanning the novel, poetry, drama, film and criticism, the
contributors emphasise some of the problems of theory and practice
posed by writing as a woman and by women's representation in
literature. The subjects of individual essays range from the
nineteenth and twentieth century novel to avant-garde film, and
from Victorian women poets to Russian women poets of today. Drawing
on disciplines as diverse as structuralism, psychoanalysis,
semiotics, socio-linguistics and Marxist analyses of literature,
the essays suggest the variety and vigour of contemporary feminist
literary criticism, as well as representing some of the debates
currently animating it. Topics of common concern range from the
nature of a women's tradition in literature to the scope and method
of feminist literary criticism itself. Successfully bridging the
gap between literary criticism and literary production, the scope
of this collection will be of considerable interest to those
concerned with current developments in literary criticism as well
as to those in the field of women's studies.
