Literature written between 1945-1975 does not fit easily into dominant critical paradigms, falling between the categories of modernism/ modernity and post-modernism/ post-modernity. However, recent criticism has begun to address this issue and to map the contours of an era which saw both rapid social change and radical literary innovation. This new volume in the History of British Women's Writing series will participate in this reassessment, drawing on new interpretive models which are illuminating the complexities of writing in this period. Moreover, the volume argues that a focus on women's writing, set firmly in its intellectual, material and cultural contexts, is central to defining the period 1945-1975 as a literary period or field of study.
