    Lou Andreas-Salomé -- Simone de Beauvoir -- Maitreyi Devi -- Asja Lacis -- Nadezhda Mandel'shtam -- Romola Nijinsky

    "Although the names Mandel'shtam and Nijinsky more commonly evoke the Russian poet and the ballet dancer, their wives, Nadezhda and Ramola, are also beginning to attract attention. Similarly, the lives and works of Simone de Beauvoir, Lou Andreas-Salome, Asja Lacis, and Maitreyi Devi, long represented as having been dominated by their association with some of the most important men of Western letters, are now coming into their own. These six women all wrote the stories of their own lives, creating powerful narratives that channelled cultural forces at the same time as parrying them. Susan Ingram analyses the literary, cultural, and ethical effects of these writers, whose lives were intertwined with the cultural vibrations of their time, and who heralded the postmodern in having to negotiate their subject positions in the form of a relational autonomy, an ethical sense of alterity, and a strong desire to intervene in the cultures of their times."--BOOK JACKET.

    Women's Lives/Women's Times reflects the growing interest in life-writing as a basis for both feminist theorizing and women-centered education. It discusses the many ways in which the study of autobiography can contribute to the theory, practice, and politics of women's studies as curriculum, and to feminist theory more generally. This volume is concerned with the application of theory to text - particularly with the assumptions and discourses of postmodernism - but also in exploring how general theories of the subject do not always fit comfortably with the specifics of autobiographical writing. It also recognizes the challenge women's autobiography offers to theory, taking us, in its complex weave of the personal, the political, and the theoretical, beyond the usual generic and disciplinary boundaries

    "Overwriting the Dictator is literary study of life writing and dictatorship in Americas. Its focus is women who have attempted to rewrite, or overwrite, discourses of womanhood and nationalism in the dictatorships of their nations of origin. The project covers five 20th century autocratic governments: the totalitarianism of Rafael Trujillo's regime in the Dominican Republic, the dynasty of the Somoza family in Nicaragua, the charismatic, yet polemical impact of Juan and Eva Perón on the proletariat of Argentina, the controversial rule of Fidel Castro following Cuba's 1959 revolution, and Augusto Pinochet's coup d'état that transformed Chile into a police state. Each chapter traces emerging patterns of experimentation with autobiographical form and determines how specific autocratic methods of control suppress certain methods of self-representation and enable others. The book foregrounds ways in which women's self-representation produces a counter-narrative that critiques and undermines dictatorial power with the depiction of women as self-aware, resisting subjects engaged in repositioning their gendered narratives of national identity."--EBSCO.

    Early modern autobiographies and diaries provide a unique insight into women's lives and how they remembered, interpreted and represented their experiences. Sharon Seelig analyses the writings of six seventeenth-century women: diaries by Margaret Hoby and Anne Clifford, more extended narratives by Lucy Hutchinson, Ann Fanshawe, and Anne Halkett, and the extraordinarily varied and self-dramatising publications of Margaret Cavendish. Combining an account of the development of autobiography with close and attentive reading of the texts, Seelig explores the relation between the writers' choices of genre and form and the stories they chose to tell. She demonstrates how, in the course of the seventeenth century, women writers progressed from quite simple forms based on factual accounts to much more imaginative and persuasive acts of self-presentation. This important contribution to the fields of early modern literary studies and gender studies illuminates the interactions between literature and autobiography

    "While books such as Belle de Jour's "The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl " and Catherine Millet's "The Sexual Life of Catherine M." captured the imagination of the reading public and marked the contemporary erotic memoir as a publishing phenomenon, the genre has received comparatively scarce scholarly attention. Through examining the cultural dominance of the figure of the 'phallic girl' (or 'ladette') in the early 21st century, this pioneering study explores the conflict that arises when the female-authored erotic memoir - a genre that holds enormous feminist potential - is co-opted by postfeminist cultural praxis. By analyzing the impact of the mainstreaming of pornography and the emergence of new communication technologies on conceptualizations of intimacy, agency and feminine sexual subjectivities, "Erotic Memoirs and Postfeminism" presents a broad critical survey of the genre and positions contemporary women's erotic memoirs as contradictory spaces in which female sexual autonomy is both actively celebrated and perniciously disavowed. The book also offers the first sustained critical analysis of a range of contemporary memoirs, including Abby Lee's "Girl with a One Track Mind", Melissa P.'s "One Hundred Strokes of the Brush Before Bed" and Tracy Quan's "Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl", amongst others." --Provided by publisher

    Frauen war lange der Zugang zur Gattung Autobiografie verschlossen; sie griffen auf Subgenres zurueck und schufen so komplexe autobiografische Diskurse. Seit den 1980er Jahren wird autobiografisches Schreiben von Frauen in Verbindung mit der poststrukturalistischen und feministischen Theorie betrachtet. Die Beitraege in diesem Sammelband konzentrieren sich auf autobiografische Texte aus den letzten 15 Jahren und aus unterschiedlichen Kulturraeumen. Alle hier besprochenen Kunstwerke stellen kein monolithisches, stabiles Subjekt nach westlich-buergerlichem Vorbild dar: Erzaehlen als performative
