Unit Description

This unit provides an introduction to the study of literature from a set of varied and sometimes divergent critical perspectives which are linked together by a shared commitment to the broader principles of feminism. In its consideration of texts written by women from the 17th to the 20th centuries, it offers a strategic sampling of writing practices ranging from realism to experimentalism.
