- Description
- This collection of essays discloses the different ways in which Spanish women writers have described and resisted socially imposed limitations on their gender. The contributions provide a balance between writers well known in Spain and those who have only recently received critical attention, from Santa Teresa de Jesús and Maria de Zayas to Emilia Pardo Bazán and Montserrat Roig. The last three essays in the volume focus on Spain's 'double minorities' : Catalan women writers.

- Description
- This volume covers the country from Cork to Belfast, from 1914 up to the early 2000s. Half of the book is devoted to Northern Ireland and to the second part of the twentieth century. The chapters describe the participation of women in war, the portrayal and non-portrayal of women in war, their experiences of war and the consequences they suffered. This book is not only about women fighting, it is also about how war and warlike situations affected women of all types and classes and their children: prostitutes, rural women, urban women, protestant women, Catholic women, writers, dramatists, artists, journalists, women in the peace movement, feminists, free women and imprisoned women. The thirteen chapters include two articles on the First World War, about 'The Women's Legion'- a women's voluntary organization, and one about the poet and writer Winifred Letts and her responses to the war. Two articles on the Irish War of Independence are concerned with representation and portrayals of women involved in the nationalist cause. The Second World War is the subject of three articles, about prostitutes, babies and rural women.

- Description
- An exploration of Irish women writers from 1880-1922, revealing them to be culturally active and deeply invested in the political and military struggles of their times. From the Land Wars to the Boer Wars, from the First World War to the Easter Rising, the War of Independence and the Civil War, the women considered in this volume grapple with the representation of conflicts. Explores the ways in which conflict narratives have been read - and interpreted - as deeply gendered and the relationship between women and conflict.
