Women's voices offering an intimate view into women's livesLizzie Borden in Love, a collection of poems by national bestselling author Julianna Baggott, offers poignant commentary in the voices of women as varied as Mary Todd Lincoln and Monica Lewinsky. The poems often focus on a particular moment in life: Katherine Hepburn discovers the dead body of her brother in an attic, or painter Mary Cassatt mourns the failure of her eyesight. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes ecstatic, the poems in this collection never fail the trust of the subjects of their intimat

This study consists of two parts. The first part offers an overview of feminism's theory of differences. The second part deals with the textual analysis of poems about "mothering" by women from India, the Caribbean and Africa. Literary criticism has dealt with the representation of "mothering" in prose texts. The exploration of lyrical texts has not yet come. Since the late 1970s, the acknowledgement of and the commitment to difference has been foundational for feminist theory and activism. This investigation promotes a differentiated, "locational" feminism (Friedman). The comprehensive theoretical discussion of feminism's different concepts of "gender", "race", "ethnicity" and "mothering" builds the foundation for the main part: the presentation and analysis of the poems. The issue of "mothering" foregrounds the communicative aspect of women's experience and wants to bridge the gap between theory and practice. This study, however, does not intend to specify "mothering" as a universal and unique feminine characteristic. It underlines a metaphorical use and discusses the concepts of "nurturing", "maternal practice" and "social parenthood." Regarding the extensive material, this study understands itself as an explorative not concluding investigation placed at the intersections of gender studies, postcolonial and classical literary studies. Most of all, it aims at initiating a dialogue and interchange between scholars and students in the Western and the "Third World."

"Liberté, égalité, sororité ! Longtemps laissé en sommeil, le concept de sororité a refait surface avec le mouvement #Metoo : être sœurs, c'est être, ensemble, plus fortes. Envisagée comme outil de pouvoir féminin, la sororité nous invite à repenser ce que signifie être une femme aujourd'hui, à questionner les rapports de domination et à imaginer le monde de demain. Sous la forme de récits, fictions, textes réflexifs, poèmes et chansons, ce collectif, dirigé par la romancière Chloé Delaume, appelle à une solidarité qui ne nie pas les différences mais embrasse la diversité. Car c'est grâce à la sororité, véritable parole en acte, que la révolution féministe adviendra." --

Translating Poetic Discourse argues in favor of a critical model that bridges between translation and women's studies on theoretical and practical levels. It proposes key-elements to be integrated into the problem of interpretation of contemporary poetry by women, and discusses the links between gender markers and the speech situation in feminist discourse as a systematic problem. This book will be of interest to scholars of Translation Studies, Women's Studies, Poetry, Comparative Literature and Discourse.
