It is Good to Be a Woman -- Works Cited -- Index. Chaos. Pain. Self-mutilation. Women starve themselves. They burn or slash their own flesh or their babies’ throats, and slam their newborns against walls. Their bodies are the canvases on which the suffering of the soul carves itself with knife and razor. In Australian fiction written by women between 1984 and 1994, female characters inscribe their inner chaos on their bodies to exert whatever power they have over themselves. Their self-inflicted pain is both reaction and language, the bodily sign not only of their enfeeblement but also to a certain extent of their empowerment, of themselves and their world. The texts considered in this book – chiefly by Margaret Coombs, Kate Grenville, Fiona Place, Penelope Rowe, Leone Sperling, and Amy Witting – function as both defiance and ac¬ceptance of prevailing discourses of femininity and patriarchy, between submission and a possible future. The narratives of anorexia, bulimia, fatness, self-mutilation, incest, and murder shock the reader into an understanding of deeper meanings of body and soul, and prompt a tentative interpretation of fiction in relation to the world of ‘real’ women and men in contemporary (white) Australia. This is affective literature with the reader in voyeuristic complicity. Holding up the mirror of fiction, the women writers act perforce as a social lever, their narratives as Bildungsromane . But there is a risk, that of reinforcing stereotypes and codes of conduct which, supposedly long gone, still represent women as victims. Why are the female characters (self-)destroyers and victims? Why are they not heroes, saviours or conquerors? If women read about women / themselves and feel pity for the Other they read about, they will also feel pity for themselves: there is little happiness in being a woman. But infanticide and distorting the body are problem-solving behaviours. In truth, the bodies of the female characters bear the marks and scars of the history of their mothers and the history of their grandmothers – indeed, that of their own: the history of survivors

Schaal. Les femmes rebelles et/ou criminelles seraient-elles plus monstrueuses que leurs homologues masculins parce qu’elles transgressent la construction socio-sexuée d’une élusive « nature féminine »? La représentation de la rébellion et de la criminalité des femmes par les écrivaines d’expression française soulève la question de la représentation de la violence tout autant que celle de la violence de cette représentation , à travers le temps mais aussi à travers l’espace. Ce n’est que très récemment qu’écrire a commencé de ne plus être vécu par les femmes dans la violence de la transgression; qu’en devient-il dès lors que celles-ci écrivent pour revendiquer leur propre violence? N’y a-t-il pas là une rébellion scripturale et sociétale doublement subversive? « Une violence à soi » tel pourrait être le sous-titre de cet ouvrage qui, dans une perspective résolument féministe, s’adresse à un lectorat pluridisciplinaire. Son originalité tient en ce qu’il offre, par le biais de disciplines telles que l’histoire, la psychanalyse ou la linguistique, ainsi que sous l’angle de théories récentes sur la narratologie, le postcolonialisme, le traumatisme ou la glottophagie, une diversité d’approches sur un sujet d’actualité trop longtemps resté tabou

    Why is the story of romance in books, magazines, and films still aimed at women rather than at men? Even after decades of feminism, traditional ideas and messages about romantic love still hold sway and, in our "postfeminist" age, are more popular than ever. Increasingly, we have become a culture of romance: stories of all kinds shape the terms of love. Women, in particular, love a love story. The Glass Slipper is about the persistence of a familiar Anglo-American love story into the digital age. Comparing influential classics to their current counterparts, Susan Ostrov Weisser relates in highly amusing prose how these stories are shaped and defined by and for women, the main consumers of romantic texts. Following a trajectory that begins with Jane Austen and concludes with Internet dating sites, Weisser shows the many ways in which nineteenth-century views of women’s nature and the Victorian idea of romance have survived the feminist critique of the 1970s and continue in new and more ambiguous forms in today’s media, with profound implications for women. More than a book about romance in fiction and media, The Glass Slipper illustrates how traditional stories about women’s sexuality, femininity, and romantic love have survived as seemingly protective elements in a more modern, feminist, sexually open society, confusing the picture for women themselves. Weisser compares diverse narratives—historical and contemporary from high literature and "low" genres—discussing novels by Jane Austen and Charlotte Brontë, Victorian women’s magazines, and D. H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover; Disney movies; popular Harlequin romance novels; masochistic love in films; pornography and its relationship to romance; and reality TV and Internet ads as romantic stories. Ultimately, Weisser shows that the narrative versions of the Glass Slipper should be taken as seriously as the Glass Ceiling as we see how these representations of romantic love are meant to inform women’s beliefs and goals. In this book, Weisser’s goal is not to shatter the Glass Slipper, but to see through it

    Here, Shaw's long-recognized influence on feminism is re-examined through the lens of 21st-century feminist thought as well as previously unpublished primary sources. New links appear between Shaw's writings and his gendered notions of physicality pain, performance, nationalism, authorship, and politics.

    An analysis of medieval literature through an exploration of the female gaze. The book looks at how female scopophilia functions in the mediaeval narrative and what effect it has on the ogling lady and her world. The theoretical framework of this project relies on psychoanalytic theory, in particular the work of the object-relations theorists D. W. Winnicott and Nancy Chodorow.

    Focusing on the lineage and traditions of pivotal African American and Irish women writers, Jacqueline Fulmer traces the line of descent from Mary Lavin to Éilís Ní Dhuibhne and from Zora Neale Hurston to Toni Morrison. She argues that these authors adopt strategies of indirection influenced by folklore, such as signifying, masking, sly civility, and the grotesque. Their magical and magisterial folk women characters entice readers toward controversial subjects.

    This book analyzes the perspective of four Mexican women writers regarding the Mexican Revolution - Nellie Campobello, Elena Garro, Laura Esquivel, and Angeles Mastretta. It examines how they recover popular memory to re-create and re-insert women in the national narrative with respect to their participation in the Revolution, which extended beyond the role of soldiers, camp followers, and soldiers' wives. The work combines cultural studies with feminist critical readings and an anthropological and geographical awareness of the roles of indigenous people and ethnic minorities, while paying attention to different categories such as gender, place, race, and class, as a wholeness of spatialized identities in permanent and constant flux. - Publisher description
