Description

Explore the history of female authorship with American Women Short Story Writers: A Collection of Critical Essays. Part of the Wellesley Studies in Critical Theory, Literary History and Culture series, this Routledge publication provides a deep look at how women have shaped the short story genre. The text begins by examining why genre critics and feminist scholars have often overlooked the short story in relation to women's writing. It then moves into detailed discussions of early works by authors such as Lydia Maria Child and Rose Terry Cooke. This collection examines how various factors, including race, class, education, and sexual orientation, have influenced women's short fiction over time. Readers will find a thorough study of the specific stylistic, formal, and thematic concerns that define women's contributions to this literary form.
