The Impact of Feminism in English Renaissance Studies

Editat de D. Callaghan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 dec 2006
The essays in this exciting and important volume move away both from the notion that women are excluded victims, and from the more recent over-compensation for that position. Instead, it steadies the pendulum and takes its impetus from the recognition that the energy of feminism now resides in its full integration into and with other knowledge.

Recenzii

'The essays in this volume are original, well-wrought, and delightfully diverse, together manifesting the richness and flexibility of feminist thought as it intersects with a variety of critical approaches to the early modern period. As a detailed and comprehensive map of the debates and discoveries in the field, the book will prove an essential tool for teachers and scholars. This is required reading for all interested in the period, whatever their perspective on feminism or gender studies.' - Celia R. Daileader, Professor of English, Florida State University, USA
