“Feminist Literary Theory: A Reader is an
indispensable guide, companion and handbook for students and
teachers of women’s literature. No other anthology offers so
many bite-sized tasters of work on gendered authorship, literary
production, critical reception, sexuality and genre – from
romantic fiction to travel writing. Mary Eagleton’s clear and
informative introductions contextualize the debates represented by
each extract, suggest connections between them and point to further
reading. This third edition maintains and develops the
irreplaceable breadth of the previous editions with several new
pieces on such areas as autobiography, science fiction and border
talk. The extra section, ‘Writing
“Glocal”’, investigates dynamically evolving
dialogues between feminism and postcolonialism, diaspora narratives
and transculturalism. Whether you read from start to finish or
choose to sample selectively, this rich collection will expand your
knowledge and understanding of feminist thought, both as an
historical discipline and as an excitingly relevant and progressive
set of ideas.”
