Paperback. Condizione: Fair. An analysis of Victorian women writers, this pathbreaking book of feminist literary criticism is now reissued with a substantial new introduction by Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar that reveals the origins of their revolutionary realization in the 1970s that the personal was the political, the sexual was the textual. The classic argument for a women's literary tradition.--Scott Heller, Chronicle of Higher Education The authors force us to take a new look at the grandes dames of English literature, and the result is that they will never seem quite the same again.--Le Anne Schreiber, New York Times Book Review Imperative reading.--Carolyn G. Heilbrun, Washington Post Book World A masterpiece.--Carolyn See, Los Angeles Times Book Review The Madwoman in the Attic, The Woman Writer and the Nineteenth-Century, originally published in 1979, has long since become a classic, one of the most important works of literary criticism of the 20th century. This new edition contains an introduction titled 'The Madwoman in the Academy' that is, quite simply, a delight to read, warmly witty, provocative, informative and illuminating.--Joyce Carol Oates, Princeton University A groundbreaking study of women writers. . . . The book brought the concerns of feminism to the study of female writers and presented the case for the existence of a distinctly feminine imagination.--Martin Arnold, The New York Times The authors are brilliant academics but they wear their erudition lightly. It remains imperative reading for those who want to understand better the grandes dames of English literature, and is still one of the most powerful pieces of writing from a feminist point of view. Argumentative, polemical, witty and thought-provoking, this is a book which will make the reader return to the original texts. --Yorkshire Post (Leeds) A feminist classic and still one of the best books on the female Victorian writers.--Judith Shulevitz, New York Times Book Review.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The first book in a landmark three-volume work that brings feminist theory to bear on modern literature in English. Focusing on both male and female writers, Gilbert and Gubar here survey social, literary, and linguistic conflicts between the sexes as revealed in texts by nineteenth- and twentieth-century writers from Tennyson to Woolf, from Hemingway to Plath."An exciting and ground-breaking work."?Carolyn Heilbrun, Columbia University"Fast, funny, profound in its theoretical assertions, and deliciously irreverent in its asides. Male readers and critics will ignore it at their own peril."?Joyce Carol Oates"Should be welcomed both by contemporary women readers and by anyone who has had the experience of modernism but wondered about its meanings."?Christine Froula, New York Times Book Review"No Man?s Land will surely rewrite the history of modernism."?Maureen Corrigan, Village Voice"No Man?s Land promises to be as crucial for our understanding of 20th-century literature as The Madwoman in the Attic has been for our understanding of 19th-century literature."?Clare Hanson, Times Higher Education Supplement.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Prominent critic, poet, and memoirist Sandra M. Gilbert explores our relationship to death though literature, history, poetry, and societal practices. Does death change--and if it does, how has it changed in the last century? And how have our experiences and expressions of grief changed? Did the traumas of Hiroshima and the Holocaust transform our thinking about mortality? More recently, did the catastrophe of 9/11 alter our modes of mourning? And are there at the same time aspects of grief that barely change from age to age? Seneca wrote, "Anyone can stop a man's life but no one his death; a thousand doors open on to it." This inevitability has left varying marks on all human cultures. Exploring expressions of faith, burial customs, photographs, poems, and memoirs, acclaimed author Sandra M. Gilbert brings to the topic of death the critical skill that won her fame for The Madwoman in the Attic and other books, as she examines both the changelessness of grief and the changing customs that mark contemporary mourning.…
