Heather Ingman

Twentieth-Century Fiction by Irish Women (eBook, ePUB)

Nation and Gender

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Heather Ingman's study argues that reading twentieth-century Irish women's fiction in the light of Kristeva's theories of nationhood places Irish women at the heart of writing about the nation and demonstrates that the political dimension of their fiction has often been underestimated. Her book is an important contribution to the study of gender in Irish writing that changes the way we view Irish women's writing.
