Summary:

Drawn from papers delivered at a literature conference held at Exeter College, University of Oxford in 2008, this collection of eleven articles on German women writers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries examines representative works in the genre and highlights case studies in feminist literary analysis. Topics discussed include historical approaches to women writers, literary studies as gender studies, nineteenth-century literature for girls as moral and cultural instruction, and race and gender in writings from German East Africa. Contributors include academics in literature, communications, and gender studies from American and European universities. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co.
