Women Writing Across Cultures: Present, Past, Future
Women Writing Across Cultures: Present, Past, Future
This collection brings together an international, multicultural, multilingual, and multidisciplinary community of scholars and practitioners in different media seeking to question and re-theorize the contested terms of our title: woman,
writing,
women’s writing, and across.
Culture is translated into an open series of interconnected terms and questions. How might one write across national cultures; or across a national and a minority culture; or across disciplines, genres, and media; or across synchronic discourses that are unequal in power; or across present and past discourses or present and future discourses?
The collection explores and develops recent feminist, queer, and transgender theory and criticism, and also aesthetic practice. Writing across assumes a number of orientations: posthumanist; transtemporal; transnationalist; writing across discourses, disciplines, media, genres, genders; writing across pronouns - he, she, they; writing across literature, non-literary texts, and life.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Angelaki: Journal of the Theoretical Humanities.
