- Description
- The contributors to this book examine women and the construction of gender thematically, dealing with the areas of politics, law, religion, sexuality, literature and economics, and in a variety of social categories, from Christians and Moriscas, queens and merchants, peasants and visionaries, heretics and madwomen. The essays cover different regions in the Spanish monarchy, including Andalusia, Aragon, Castile, Catalonia, Valencia and Spanish America, from the fifteenth century through to the eighteenth century. The book focuses on two central themes: gender relations in the shaping of family and community life, and women's authority in spheres of power. The representation of women in a variety of texts such as poetry, court cases, or even account books illustrate the multifaceted world in which women lived, constantly choosing and negotiating their identities.

- 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 collection of articles illuminates the ways in which the concept of female deviance is represented, re-inscribed and refigured in a wide range of texts across time, cultures and genres.The choice of variety shows that representations of deviance accommodate meaning-making spaces and possibilities for resistance in different socio-cultural and literary contexts. The construct of the deviant woman is analysed from literary, sociolinguistic and historical-cultural perspectives, revealing insights about cultures and societies. Furthermore, the studies recognise and explain the significance of the concept of deviance in relation to gender that bespeaks a contemporary cultural concern about narratives of femininity.

- Description
- This volume analyzes representations of the mother in francophone post-2000 literature and films in North America. Contributors reexamine the 'horrible mother' paradigm to broaden the understanding of mothering beyond traditional ideology (e.g. the working multitasking mother, the absent mother and the liberated mother). The chapters focus on the predominant theme of the mother in order to reassess questions of for example identity, guilt, heteronormativity and childlesness. They refer to works of writers or filmmakers such as Nelly Arcan, Grégoire Chabot, Marguerite Andersen and Xavier Dolan.

- Description
- The essays examine women in early modern Spain who defended their right to make their own decisions, defined their own identities, battled the status quo, challenged authority, and broke barriers. Such women did not necessarily engage in masculine pursuits, but often used cultural production and engaged in social subversion to exercise resistance in the home, in the convent, as actors and producers in the theater, women as dramatic subjects in plays on stage, and as writers, poets and readers. One part of the book is about Teresa of Ávila (1515-1582).
Each author makes a short nod to Bárbara Mujica, whose career this book celebrates, and her contribution to the field of Spanish literature, theater, women's studies, Teresian studies, and historical fiction.
