This text is designed as a companion volume to Maggie Humm s popular textbook A Reader s Guide to Contemporary Feminist Literary Criticism. It offers the student reader examples of feminist approaches to literature in both theory and practice, demonstrating the range and complexity of feminist and critical questions, and showing them concretely at work. Following a lucid account of what is covered by the terms feminism and criticism , the book then presents each theoretical approach in a thoroughly accessible and succinct manner.
