A dialogue of voices : feminist literary theory and Bakhtin
This volume features original essays which combine feminism and Bakhtin by interpreting texts through these two perspectives, to arrive at new theoretical approaches. Together, the essays point to a direction that would lead to a feminine "etre" rather than a feminine "ecriture".
