From colonial New Spain to postcolonial Africa and India, Women and Contemporary World Literature examines ways in which women in literature function within their specific culture and circumstances to confront the challenges they encounter. In spite of fragmentation in their lives – much like quiltmakers – they piece together the scraps of their existence to form an integrated and complete whole. With its focus on power, fragmentation, and metaphor, and a strong interdisciplinary approach, this book offers a unique perspective to scholars, teachers, and students of comparative literature, contemporary world literature, colonial and postcolonial literature, women’s studies, interdisciplinary studies, and literature and cultural studies.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 230mmItem Length: 160mmItem Weight: 410gAuthor: Deborah WeagelGenre: Literary CriticismBook Series: American University StudiesTopic: Society & Culture, Gender Sex & RelationshipsRelease Year: 2009 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
