| Summary |
Volume 18 in the series 'Yearbook of the Research Centre for German and Austrian Exile Studies' is entitled 'Exile and Gender II: Politics, Education and the Arts'. It is edited by Charmian Brinson, Jana Barbora Buresova and Andrea Hammel, and is intended as a companion volume to Volume 17, which focused on literature and the press. This new volume considers the life and work of exiled women politicians, academics and artists, among others, examining the ways? both positive and negative - in which their exile affected them. The sixteen contributions, which are in English or German, set out to throw new light on aspects of gendered relations and experiences of women in exile in Great Britain and Ireland. |
