6 English Language and Literatures · Anglistik · Langue et littératures anglaises third chapter entirely dedicated to its specific or comparative examination, but her collec- tions of poetry and the other five novels have also garnered single or comparative critical attention from the present contributors .

Elke D’hoker / Raphaël Ingelbien / Hedwig Schwall (eds) Irish Women Writers New Critical Perspectives fter a decade in which women writers have gradually been given more recognition in the study of Irish literature, this collection proposes a reappraisal of Irish women’s writing by inviting dialogues with new or hitherto marginalised critical frameworks as well as with foreign and transnational literary traditions . Several essays explore how Irish women writers engaged with European themes and traditions through the genres of travel writing, the historical novel, the monologue and the fairy tale . Other contributions are concerned with the British context in which some texts were Oxford, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt am Main, New York, Wien, 2011 . VIII, 310 pp . Reimagining Ireland .

Further chapters emphasise the transnational character of Irish women’s writing by applying continental theory and French feminist thinking to various texts; in other chapters new developments in theory are applied to Irish texts for the first time . Casting the efforts of Irish women in a new light, the collection also includes explorations of the work of neglected or emerging authors who have remained comparatively ignored by Irish literary criticism .

Whereas the vocabulary of the Caligula manuscript is consciously archaising, the lexicon of the Otho text is more modern . This study of the lexical fields ‘hero’, ‘warrior’ and ‘knight’ in the Brut chronicle investigates «black matriarchy», race relations, and social policy, as well as ethnographies by Ulf Hannerz, David A . Schulz, and Kenneth B . Clark . It is against the backdrop of the ethnographic research that Part II investigates discursive continuities as well as ruptures in the articulation of black masculinities in Dick Gregory’s and Claude Brown’s narratives of success and counter-hegemonic prison writings by Black Panther Party lead- ers: Bobby Seale, Eldridge Cleaver, and George Jackson .
