- Description
- The aim of this book is to make visible the intentionality behind the 'forgetting' of European women's contributions during the period between the two world wars in the context of politics, culture and society. It also seeks to analyse women's agency in the construction and reconstruction of Europe and its nation states after the First World War, and thus to articulate ways in which the writing of women's history necessarily entails the rewriting of everyone's history. .By showing that the erasure of women's texts from literary and cultural history was not accidental but was ideologically motivated, the essays explicitly and implicitly contribute to debates surrounding canon formation. Other important topics are women's political activism during the period, antifascism, the contributions made by female journalists, the politics of literary production, genre, women's relationship with and contributions to the avant-garde, women's professional lives, and women's involvement in voluntary associations. The chapter about the Netherlands is about Dutch women writers between the wars.

- Description
- This book analyses the literary production of Irene Némirovsky (1903-1942) literary production in its relationship to the literary and cultural context of the inter-war period in France. It examines topics of central importance to our understanding of the literary field in France in the period, such as the close relationship between politics and literature: the historical, political, cultural and personal legacies of the First World War: the so-called ‘crisis of the novel’ and the attempt to create and develop new narrative forms: the phenomenon of Russian emigration to Paris in the wake of the Russian Revolution and Civil War: the possibilities for the creation of a French-Jewish identity and mode of writing: and the threat of fascism and the approach of the Second World War.
