- Summary:
- Feminism has had, perhaps, the greatest impact of any relatively recent approach to literary theory. It has not only helped create or revive interest in many previously little-known or much-neglected authors but has also raised key issues about gender--issues that have influenced numerous other approaches, such as multiculturalism and LGBTQ studies. This title offers deliberately diverse approaches to women writers, women-centered texts, and feminist methods of interpretation.
