Abstract
|
:
|
By recovering a strong and elaborate psychology the book works with and beyond postmodern textuality, thus making itself a very informative example of poetry criticism at the wake of recent textual sovereignty in the field of literary studies."--Jacket.

It is a book determined to valorize and celebrate gendered experience and expression as they emerge through the intricate intertextuality of the collection and it offers an extensive exploration of the complexities of interpretation and literary voice(s). Dr. Spentzou works at the intersection of ancient criticism and modern literary theories as images of and reflections on gender, genre, and writing - which span from Plato, and the Greek tragedians to Cixous, Kristeva, and modern epistolary theorists - meet, interpret, and are reinterpreted in the heroines' monologues. The book develops and also challenges one of the most significant explicative tools of Classical poetry in recent times, intertextuality, as it attempts to instil ideology into self-reflexive experimentation and to establish gendered thinking as a drive that pervades a series of political, formalist, generic, reader-oriented and other discourses.
