Positioned at the intersection of studies on the body and sexuality in modernist literature, this book delves into the intricate cultural, political, and epistemological understandings of female sexuality. Through close reading strategies, it identifies how modernist authors challenge traditional representations of female positionality as passive, exploring how canonical modernist authors such as Virginia Woolf, W.B. Yeats, James Joyce, and Samuel Beckett found novel ways to represent women as embodied, sexual, desired, and desiring subjects through prose, poetry, and drama. This book examines Woolf's Orlando: A Biography (1928), Yeats's The Winding Stair and Other Poems (1933), Joyce's Finnegans Wake (1939), and Beckett's Not I (1972), among other dramatic works. By foregrounding sexuality as an integral part of female character, these works of modernist literature redefine our perception of the artistic body as a framework for contemplating woman as a linguistic construct and material reality. This study holds immense appeal to scholars in English literature, women and gender studies, and sexuality studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 280g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367552312\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ElaineWood","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104156020986,"sku":"9780367552312","price":44.88,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1654255407813_book.jpg?v=1654416669","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/female-sexuality-in-modernist-fiction-literary-techniques-for-making-women-artists-9780367552312","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
