Beschreibung

In light of postcolonial and feminist critiques of 'experience' and 'identity', how can feminists engage stories of marginalized peoples' experience in the development of feminist theories and modes of activism that take account of the diversity of women's situations? How can feminists use the powerful tools of storytelling in ways that do not essentialize or objectify marginalized women? Shari Stone-Mediatore brings together the theoretical perspectives of Hannah Arendt and postcolonial theory to develop a 'post-positivist' account of narrative which can form the basis for a progressive feminist politics.

Über den Autor

Zusammenfassung

Addresses important question of how we can tell the stories of oppressed peoples without increasing their oppression (an essential issue for feminists and for postcolonial/subaltern scholars)

There's renewed interest in the humanities in the work of Hannah Arendt. Book makes an original argument by reading Arendt through lens of postcolonialist thought

Will be an important book for feminist theorists and for critics who work on autobiography, life writing

Part of series edited by one of the top scholars in postcolonial feminism
