Charlotte Perkins Gilman

The Crux

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"With reproductive technologies at the center of feminist, medical, and national debate, "The Crux" offers a fascinating historical perspective on the relationship of reproduction and nationalism. Dana Seitler's introduction offers a useful context in which to read Charlotte Perkins Gilman's quirky, biology-based feminism, her depiction of a women's community in the west, and, generally, the relationship between fiction-writing and the fashioning of gender roles that fueled Gilman's particular brand of activism."--Priscilla Wald, author of "Constituting Americans: Cultural Anxiety and Narrative Form"
