Description:
B.T. Batsford, London, first edition, 1990. Cloth, 8vo, 24 cm,. xvi, 1231 pp. Women writers have flourished wherever English is established as a major language. This, the first fully international guide to the subject features the contribution of women both to the older literatures of Britain, Ireland and North America, and to those of more recent origin in the Caribbean, the South Pacific, Australasia, Asia and Africa. The bulk of the entries [ some 2,700] are biographical, but [about 60] key topic entries are also included, dealing with important genres, movements and institutions which have affected women's writing (for example: autobiography, circulating libraries, feminist theory and film criticism, publishing, slave narratives). All entries are alphabetically arranged, and a separate list of entry headings and cross-references enables readers to pursue particular interests.

Description:
Greenwood Press, New York, first edition, 1991. Cloth, 8vo, 25 cm,. xxiii, 632 pp. This bio-bibliographical reference book provides an excellent introduction to the lives and works of some 51 of the most important women writers in the history of French literature. The writers selected include all the major names in the canon and several lesser-known figures with a substantial body of published work. Each writer is the subject of an essay of about 10 pages covering her life and work, with an emphasis on her experiences as a writer, a discussion of her major themes, and a brief survey of critical reactions. Each essay is followed by a short bibliography of primary works, a list of titles translated into English, and a selection of critical studies, with somewhat more extensive bibliographical information for the lesser-known authors. An additional essay describes the trobairitz, the women troubadours of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The volume ends with a chronology which features the dates of… Read More
