Gossip, Letters, Phones : The Scandal Of Female Networks In Film And Literature
Attribution
Ned SchantzPublication Details
BookOxford University Press2008Description
Although female communication networks abound in many contexts and have received a good measure of critical scrutiny, no study has addressed their unique significance within narrative culture writ large. While this study traverses an uncanny realm of lost messages and false suitors, telepathy and artificial intelligence, locked rooms and time-traveling stalkers, these occult concerns only confirm the importance of female communication at its most basic level.

Shannon MillerPublication Details
BookUniversity of Pennsylvania Press2008Description
The narrative of the Garden of Eden infused seventeenth-century political thought no less than it reflected attitudes toward the relationship between the sexes. She sets a series of writings by women into conversation with the period’s most important poetic rendering of the Fall, Milton’s Paradise Lost, to illustrate how significant gender was to accounts of social and political organization, and to demonstrate how the Garden narrative plots the role of gender.

Women Novelists And The Ethics Of Desire, 1684-1814 : In The Voice Of Our Biblical Mothers
Attribution
Elizabeth KraftPublication Details
BookAshgate2008Description
In “Women Novelists and the Ethics of Desire, 1684-1814″, Elizabeth Kraft radically alters our conventional views of early women novelists by taking seriously their representations of female desire. Like their paradigmatic foremothers, these early women novelists create female characters who demonstrate subjectivity and responsibility for the other even as they grapple with the exigencies imposed on them by circumstance and convention.Kraft’s study, informed by ethical theorists such as Emmanuel Levinas and Luce Irigaray, is remarkable in its juxtaposition of narratives from ancient and early modern times.
