- Description
- This volume focuses on the work of exiled women writers and journalists as well as on gendered representations in the writing of both male and female exiled writers. The contributions are in English or German. The seventeen contributions set out to both celebrate and critically examine the concepts of gender and sexuality in exile in a wide range of texts by well-known and lesser known authors, and throw light on many different aspects of gendered authorship and gendered relations. The volume also looks at two bibliographic rarities: exile newspapers intended for and directed at a female readership. Table of contents: “Exemplary Lives”? Thoughts on Exile, Gender and Exile Writing / Katharina Prager: Gender and Kindertransport Memoirs / Andrea Hammel: Anna Seghers und die Moderne: Positionen aus der Expressionismusdebatte und den großen Exilromanen / Christine Ujma: Masculinity and Femininity in Anna Seghers’ and Bodo Uhse’s Mexican Exile Narratives / Trinidad Marín Villora: Carl und Alice Zuckmayer in Vermont: A Gendered Perspective / Birgit Maier-Katkin: Die Suche nach dem Ort: Veza Canettis Erzählung „Toogoods oder das Licht“ / Rosa Marta Gómez Pato: „Man wird, was man war erst ganz in der Emigration“: Veza und Elias Canetti in der Emigration in England ?

- Description
- This book examines Anglophone literature and dynamics of gender and race in relation to Burma and brings a critical lens to contemporary literature, film, and politics through the use of an innovative feminist/queer methodology. The book demonstrates how Burmese women break out of prisons, both real and discursive, by writing themselves into being. Ho assembles an archive that includes George Orwell, Aung San Suu Kyi, critically acclaimed authors Ma Ma Lay and Wendy Law-Yone, and activist Zoya Phan. Her close readings of literature and politicized performances by women in Burma, the Burmese diaspora, and the United States illuminate their contributions as authors, cultural mediators, and practitioner-citizens. These authors articulate regionally situated knowledges and decolonizing viewpoints that interrogate competing transnational hegemonies, such as U.S. moral imperialism and Asian militarized dictatorship.

- Description
- This collection of verse and prose pieces by over 50 Italian American women writers-some well established, others newer to the field-reveals the evocative and provocative power of food as event and as symbol, as well as the diversity of these women's lives and their ambivalence regarding the role of nurturer. Most of the selections have a deeply spiritual or religious dimension, albeit not always an affirmative one. For instance, in Camille Trinchieri's 'Kitchen Communion,' a grieving widow gives her adult children ashes from their father's cremated remains as a way of keeping the dysfunctional family together, while Sandra M. Gilbert's 'Kissing the Bread' explores various kinds of kisses-of blessing, preparation for crisis, guilt, mocking, dread, and good-bye.
