- Description
- This book examines the relationship between words and images in various life-writing works produced by nineteenth to twenty-first century American and British women. It addresses the politics of images in women’s life writing, contending that the presence or absence of images is often strategic. Including a range of different forms of life writing, chapters draw on traditional (auto)biographies, travel narratives, memoirs, diaries, autofiction, cancer narratives, graphic memoirs, artistic installations, quilts and online performances, as life writing moves from page to screen and other media. The book explores a wide range of women who have crossed the boundary between text and image: painters who have become writers, novelists who have become painters, writers who hesitate between images and words, models who seize the camera, and artists who use the frame as a page.

- Description
- In this book Linzie examines three mid-twentieth-century texts never before treated as interrelated in a book-length work of literary criticism: Gertrude Stein's The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas (1933) and Alice B. Toklas's The Alice B. Toklas Cook Book (1954) and What is Remembered (1963).. The book explores how the concept of autobiography as a primarily referential genre is challenged and transformed in relation to autobiographical texts written about the same person, the same life, but differently, by different writers, at different points of time.

- Description
- This book examines the processes involved in writing the lives of women, both as autobiographies and as biographies. The book is divided into three parts: the first part focuses on the process of writing lives as expressed but also contested in epistolary narratives, autobiography and historical fiction. The second part considers notions of female genealogy and the relationship with the material, both biological and symbolic. The third part comprises articles which deal with writing outside geographical and metaphorical borders.

- Description
- Dwelling in the archive examines how women wrote about the experience of colonialism, partition, and nation-building in memoirs, fictions, and histories. Burton analyses the writings of Janaki Majumdar, daughter of the first president of the Indian National Congress who chronicled her family's transnational history: Cornelia Sorabji, a lawyer who wrote about secluded women in the home: and Attia Hosain, a novelist who wrote about the trauma of partition through a young girl's understandings of her family home. Burton argues for the expansion of what is considered archival material, showing how political events in modern India are closely intertwined with women's experiences of the physical spaces of houses and memories of home.
