Description

Romancing the Postmodern by Diane Elam explores literature's most uncertain genre, romance, and its implications for feminism and our understanding of history. By examining the relationship between postmodernism and modernism, Elam reveals how postmodernism challenges our assumptions about historical time.

This book reintroduces the figure of woman to the theory of both history and literature, highlighting the need for a nuanced understanding of the role of women in shaping our understanding of the past. A thought-provoking analysis that will appeal to scholars and readers interested in literary criticism and semiotics.
