Beschreibung

Women, `Race'' and Writing in the Early Modern Period is an extraordinarily comprehensive interdisciplinary examination of one of the most neglected areas in current scholarship. The contributors use literary, historical, anthropological and medical materials to explore an important intersection within the major era of European imperial expansion. The volume looks at: * the conditions of women''s writing and the problems of female authorship in the period. * the tensions between recent feminist criticism and the questions of `race'', empire and colonialism. *the relationship between the early modern period and post-colonial theory and recent African writing. Women, `Race'' and Writing in the Early Modern Period contains ground-breaking work by some of the most exciting scholars in contemporary criticism and theory. It will be vital reading for anyone working or studying in the field.
