Why then have the critical debates arising out of these movements had so little to say about each other? Patricia Waugh addresses the relationship between feminist and postmodernist writing and theory through the insights of psychoanalysis and in the context of the development of modern fiction in Britain and America. She attempts to uncover the reasons why women writers have been excluded from the considerations of postmodern art.</PRLE: Women, Feminism and LiteratureEnglish fictionWomen authorsHistory and criticismAmerican fictionWomen authorsHistory and criticismAmerican fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismEnglish fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismPostmodernism (Literature)English-speaking countriesFeminism and literatureEnglish-speaking countriesWomen and literatureEnglish-speaking countriesPsychological fictionHistory and criticismIdentity (Psychology) in literatureSex role in literatureElectronic books.English fictionWomen authorsHistory and criticism.American fictionWomen authorsHistory and criticism.American fictionHistory and criticism.English fictionHistory and criticism.Postmodernism (Literature)Feminism and literatureWomen and literaturePsychological fictionHistory and criticism.Identity (Psychology) in literature.Sex role in literature.823.914099287Waugh Patricia.221093MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462281203321Feminine fictions1254102UNINA
