Call for Papers 49. Special issue. Feminist and feminist voices: literatures of resistance and transformation.

2024-06-25

La Palabra journal extends a kind invitation to contribute to the special issue for the year 2024, which will approach the great theme of feminine and feminist voices: literatures of resistance and transformation.

In this issue, we want to explore and celebrate the richness and diversity of literature written by women and the role of women in literary works, both historically and currently. We are looking for contributions that address topics such as the representation of women in literature, the female experience in writing, the influence of women in literature, femininities and masculinities in literature, literary criticism from a feminist viewpoint, and the visibility of women in the literary scene.

Topics:

  • Analysis from feminist theories to literary works by female and male authors.
  • Review of recent works and collections of women's literature.
  • Feminine experience in writing and literature.
  • Analysis of the representation of women in literature.
  • Analysis of literary works by contemporary women writers that address issues of gender, identity, and power.
  • Comparative studies of the representation of femininity and feminist resistance in different literary and cultural traditions.
  • Explorations of the relationship between literature and feminist movements, both historical and contemporary.
  • Investigations of how feminist literature has influenced critical theory, literary criticism, and cultural studies.
  • Examinations of the intersectionality of gender with other forms of oppression, such as race, class, and sexuality, in contemporary literature.

Papers that develop these or any other topic that may be related to the general theme of the issue may be submitted for evaluation until October 14 of this year.
