- Description
- The field of American women's writing is one characterized by innovation: scholars are discovering new authors and works, as well as new ways of historicizing this literature, rethinking contexts and categories. This book develops and challenges historical, cultural, theoretical, even polemical methods, all of which will advance the future study of American women writers – from Native Americans to postmodern communities, from individual careers to communities of writers and readers.

- Description
- This book moves beyond the traditional understanding of the four elements of hip-hop culture—rapping, breakdancing, graffiti art, and deejaying—to articulate how hip-hop feminist scholarship can inform educational practices and spark, transform, encourage, and sustain local and global youth community activism efforts. This multi-genre and interdisciplinary reader engages performance, poetry, document analysis, playwriting, polemics, cultural critique, and autobiography to radically reimagine the political utility of hip-hop-informed social justice efforts that insist on an accountable analysis of identity and culture. Featuring scholarship from professors and graduate and undergraduate students actively involved in the work they profess, this book's commitment to making the practice of hip-hop feminist activism practical in our everyday

- Description
- This book covers a period dating back to the eighteenth century. These essays highlight the artistry, complexity and diversity of a literary tradition that ranges from Lucy Terry to Toni Morrison. A wide range of topics are addressed, from the Harlem Renaissance to the Black Arts Movement, and from the performing arts to popular fiction. Together, the essays provide a guide to a tradition of women writers in conversation with each other as they critique American society and influence American letters.

- Description
- Following the lead of such books as Marjorie Perloff's Radical Artifice: Writing Poetry in the Age of Media, the editors respectively gather 19 pieces that examine ways in which experimental women writers challenge traditional free-verse writing through the creation of hybrid forms. For example, writing on the spoken-word poetry of performance artist Tracie Morris, Kathleen Crown notes how Morris repeats the lyrics of 'Dancing Cheek to Cheek' while beating time with increasing violence on her chest and throat, as her audience becomes more uncomfortable and the sunny Doris Day lyrics shade into a tableau of spousal abuse. The danger for practitioners of such 'oppositional poetics', the authors note, is that they 'can harden into positions opposing each other, rather than establishing areas of shared concerns'. Hinton and Hogue hope to lessen such parochialism with this volume, which will encourage various experimental writers to acknowledge and learn from one another. The kind of writing under discussion here is not exactly big box office, but by furthering the conversation between these radical women artists Hinton reminds readers that it can be refreshing to break up ordinary literary discourse and seek a fruitful bewilderment among its fragments.

- Description
- The period in Volume V of the Series ‘The History of British Women's Writing’ witnessed the first full flowering of women's writing in Britain. Building on the success and popularity of earlier poets, novelists, playwrights, and philosophers, British women consolidated their significance as writers in the second half of the eighteenth century and the first decades of the nineteenth century. They participated in movements like Bluestocking intellectualism, abolition, new understandings of class, religion, and childhood. They initiated literary styles like the novel of sensibility, the elegiac sonnet, and the historical romance. A.o. Mary Wollstonecraft, Jane Austen, Mary Tighe, and Joanna Baillie.
