Studies in Contemporary Women's Writing
Studies in Contemporary Women's Writing, founded by Gill Rye and published by Peter Lang, is closely linked to the Centre for the Study of Contemporary Women's Writing at the Institute of Languages, Cultures and Societies, which promotes and facilitates national and international research in post-1968 writing by women in and beyond its core languages of French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish (including Catalan and Galician).
This book series supports the Centre's work by publishing high-quality critical studies on recent trends, issues and themes in women's writing, making connections between literature and women's lives, experiences and perspectives in the socio-political world. Studies in Contemporary Women's Writing also seeks to raise the profile of new or neglected authors and texts, as well as to expand understanding of the work of established authors.
