About this book

A study of contemporary French representations of women at work.

'Taking Up Space' explores representations of women in contemporary French film, literature, television, magazines, and visual art. In particular, contributors reflect on how these images present women at work in various spaces--professional, reproductive, domestic, illegal, and activist alike.

Beyond Spain's Borders: Women Players in Early Modern National Theaters
<p> Contributors to the volume not only investigate the gendered effect of Spanish texts and literary types on English and French drama, they address the actual journeys of Spanish actresses to French theaters and of Italian actresses to the Spanish stage, while several emphasize the movement of royal women to various courts and their impact on theatrical activity in Spain and abroad. In their innovative focus on women's participation and influence, the chapters in this volume illustrate the frequent yet little studied transnational and transcultural points of contact between Spanish theater and the national theaters of England, France, Austria, and Italy.　　</p>

Charlotte Brontë from the Beginnings: New Essays from the Juvenilia to the Major Works
Composed of serialized works, poems, short tales, and novellas, Charlotte Brontë's juvenilia merit serious scholarly attention as revelatory works in and of themselves as well as for what they tell us about the development of Brontë as a writer. This collection attends to both critical strands, positioning Brontë's career within the Romantic and Victorian eras and delving into the nineteenth century's literary concerns and the growth of the writer's mind.
