Programma
The first part of the course offers an introduction to postcolonial critical theory and gender studies, from which contemporary Anglophone women's writings may be profitably approached. It deals with the relationships between the imperial centre and its (ex)colonies, it investigates moments of appropriation and subversion of European culture in the post-1945 period, it discusses questions of patriarchal, colonial, race and power relationships, and analyses literary works by women writers that speak about urgent issues of contemporary time.
The second part of the course offers critical readings of poetic and narrative texts by women in/from different Anglophone contexts.
