Each chapter deals with one of the issues or concepts that have engaged both authors and theorists - rhetoric, work, consciousness, nature, class and race. A detailed analysis shows how each concept has been used by feminists to construct a specific text in such a way that it is received as a work of 'women's writing', particularly in American literature.Using canonical texts, from Charlotte Perkins Gilman through Kate Chopin and Willa Cather to Alice Walker and Ann Beattie, Madsen engages with the major debates within feminist studies. Moving on from Showalter's groundbreaking work to broaden the trajectory of feminist concern, this book is an accessible account of the varieties of feminist thought within the context of the key American texts. 606 $aAmerican literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $aAmerican literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFeminism and literature$zUnited States 606 $aWomen and literature$zUnited States 606 $aFeminism$zUnited States 606 $aFeminism in literature 615 0$aAmerican literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFeminism and literature 615 0$aWomen and literature 615 0$aFeminism 615 0$aFeminism in literature. 676 $a812.009/9287 700 $aMadsen$b Deborah L$0550192 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821202703321 996 $aFeminist theory and literary practice$91769764 997 $aUNINA
