Description

"Not Drowning but Waving...gestures both at the difficulties faced by feminists in the humanities in Canada and at the possibilities of hope, of new 'waves' of feminism."Twenty-two essays explore topics such as feminism in the liberal arts disciplines; the relationship of the liberal arts to the larger university; the costs and rewards for women in administration; the corporatization of university campuses; intergenerational and transcultural tensions within feminist communities; balancing personal life with professional aspirations; the relationship of feminism to cultural studies; women, social justice, and the liberal arts.

Not Drowning But Waving is a welcome progress report on the variety of feminisms at work in academe and beyond.

It provides crucial insights for university administrators, faculty, and literate non-specialists interested in the Arts and Humanities.
