- 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 volume of The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture reflects the increase in research on the topic of gender over the past thirty years, showing that even the most familiar subjects take on new significance when viewed through the lens of gender. The wide range of entries explores how people have experienced and used concepts of womanhood and manhood in all sorts of obvious and subtle ways. The volume features 113 articles, 65 of which are new for this edition. Thematic articles address subjects such as sexuality, respectability, and paternalism and look at the role of gender in broader subjects, including the civil rights movement, country music, and sports. Topical entries highlight individuals such as Oprah Winfrey and the Grimke sisters, as well as historical events such as the capture of Jefferson Davis in a woman's dress and the Memphis sanitation workers' strike, with its slogan, 'I AM A MAN.' Bringing together scholarship on gender and the body, sexuality, labor, race, and politics, this volume offers new ways to view big questions in southern history and culture.

- Description
- This book highlights the multiplicity of American women’s writing related to liminality and hybridity from its beginnings to the contemporary moment. Often informed by notions of crossing, intersectionality, transition, and transformation, these concepts as they appear in American women’s writing contest as well as perpetuate exclusionary practices involving class, ethnicity, gender, race, religion, and sex, among other variables.
