Wild Women: a look at outdoor literature and the women who write about the wilderness
(MFA Presentation, USM)
In this seminar, we will be taking a look at outdoor literature written by women and the questions, criticism, or stereotypes they’ve faced in telling their story. We will discuss the boundaries that are still being broken as more and more women claim their right to exist in the outdoors, and the lengths they’ve gone to in their fight for equality. This seminar will explore how outdoor literature written by women addresses the greater complications of gender relations in our modern culture.
