- By reading short stories, essays, and poetry by women from different parts of the world and from a range of time periods we address core concepts both in literary studies and gender, women, and sexuality studies. We study all of these in a comparative way, to understand how specificities of nation, culture, and history affect and inflect literary writing. By the same token, we look at gender as it relates to the nature, activity, and forms of creative writing and reading, and how these vary across cultures and world regions.
