- 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.

The third part builds on feminist historiography and social anthropology to question simplistic dichotomies and binaries.

- Description
- This special issue is dedicated to the theme of Women Writers and Intellectuals. Virtually no women are part of the literary/intellectual canon from Russia to Greece, and when women do appear as writers, they are generally cast as an exception, or as marginal or incidental. Their presence, in other words, only serves to reinforce, explicitly and implicitly, the masculine ideal that defines the Central, Eastern and Southeastern European intelligentsia. Yet women wrote, both in private and public. The articles written by contributors to this issue fall into two categories: those that consider the invisibility of women at the heart of the literary canon and those that reshape the images of the intelligentsia in the modern history of Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe. With forum: Contemporary women writers and intellectuals.
