Crosslistings: WMST 267 |
Virginia Woolf, Angela Carter, and Jeanette Winterson. Representing three generations of modern British writers, inhabiting different socio-political spaces, these three women nevertheless engaged in a common enterprise. They interrogated and challenged systems of sexuality and gender, regimes of law and power, registers of discourse and genre. In language ranging from the baroque to the bawdy, emotion running from the pensive to the ecstatic, these women artists courageously pursued their inquiry into the metaphysics of the flesh and the physics of the spirit (one survives to perpetuate the project). We read their selected works intensively and contextually, mindful of the ties that bind and unbind them: Woolf, Carter, Winterson-these three.
