Course Description

An accompaniment to Writing Women Part 1, this module will continue to explore the various ways in which feminism can be translated to creative writing. In Part 2, we will continue to build on the foundations of what was covered in Part 1, and place further emphasis on critical theory, with students analysing extracts from texts such as Simone De Beauvoir’s ‘The Second Sex.’ Through prompts and writing exercises, students will challenge misogynistic portrayals of women in creative work, bring the marginalised to the forefront, and give voice to the silenced.
