Description

Spanish literature includes some of the world's greatest works and authors.

It is also one of the most widely studied. This reference looks at the literature of Spain from the perspective of women's studies.

Though the volume focuses on the literature of Spain written in Castilian, it also includes survey entries on the present state of women's literature in Catalan, Galician, and Basque. Included are hundreds of alphabetically arranged entries for numerous topics related to Spanish literature, including literary periods and genres, significant characters and character types, major authors and works, and various specialized topics.

Each entry discusses how the topic relates to women's studies.

Entries for male authors discuss their attitudes toward women.

Female writers are considered for the restrictive cultural contexts in which they wrote.

Specific works are examined for their representations of female characters and their handling of women's issues.

Each entry is written by an expert contributor and closes with a brief bibliography.

The volume concludes with a list of works for further reading.
