The first section of the book explores protofeminist thought from the Middle Ages onwards, and analyses the work of pioneers such as Wollstonecraft and Woolf. The second section examines the rise of second-wave feminism and maps its interventions across the twentieth century. A final section examines the impact of postmodernism on feminist thought and practice. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the history and development of feminist literary criticism and a lively reassessment of the main issues and authors in the field. It is essential reading for all students and scholars of feminist writing and literary criticism.

Book Description
Cruel fate has decided the future of two warriors. "Wayfarer's Dawn holds all the gripping and alluring aspects of an epic fantasy adventure." A crown prince awakens one fateful day alone in a desolate field. He knows not where he is nor how he got there. Recurring nightmares suggest royal treachery is behind his predicament and, oddly, that he should be dead. An enigmatic man narrowly survives the fallout from a blazing comet's collision with the earth. His memory lost, he strives for contentedness in everyday life. The trauma he suffered, however, threatens to destroy him. Feelings of grief and visions of death fight to break free from the black wall within his mind. They exist in a world fraught with upheaval, where the forces of evil are mounting and the gods are becoming less and less responsive to the prayers of their followers. Unknowingly, they hold the key to saving their world and, quite possibly, the entire Ultraverse.

Category : Literary Criticism
ISBN : 0415521696
Book Description
United by a common focus on writing by and about women, this collection of contemporary essays, spanning the novel, poetry, drama, film and criticism, emphasises 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 structuralism, psychoanalysis, semiotics, socio-linguistics and Marxist analyses of literature, the diverse essays suggest the variety and vigour of contemporary feminist literary criticism, as well as representing the debates animating it. Successfully bridging the gap between literary criticism and literary production, the scope of this collection will be of considerable interest to those concerned with developments in literary criticism as well as to those in the field of women's studies.
