ENGL 348 - Women Writers

Institution:

Saint John Fisher University

Subject:

Description:

An exploration of major works of English and/or American women writers often grouped by historical period. This course attempts to discover common themes and images in women's writing that we place in a cultural and historical context. Mindful of the astonishing variety in this literature, students try to discern whether there is what Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar call "a strong continuity" in the writings of English-speaking women,and if so, to what degree, as Virginia Woolf contends, books (particularly by women) "continue each other."
