Document Details : Title: 'Voorwaarts, en niet vergeten' Subtitle: De kleine genderstappen vooruit Author(s): VAN OOSTRUM, Wilhelmina R.D. Journal: Spiegel der Letteren Volume: 46 Issue: 3-4 Date: 2004 Pages: 355-365 DOI: 10.2143/SDL.46.3.2004783 Abstract : This contribution offers a review of the development of gender studies since 1973 in the field of eighteenth-century Dutch literature, and calls for a further development of the use of (male and female) gender as a category in the analysis of historical texts. A general problem, however, continues to be the special position of women writers within the larger literary field, and their preference (often out of sheer necessity) for certain genres. |
