Descripción
Sumario:"In Her Own Words, is an edited compilation of autobiographical narratives by fifteen outstanding artist/authors. Since these writers are visual artists of historical interest, the specific, excerpted texts have been selected for their insights into the ways in which writing and making art intersect. The texts are limited to three main genres: the retrospective "autobiography," the journal/diary entry, and the letter. The excerpted texts are presented in a concise format, accessible to all interested readers both in and out of the classroom. The audience for this book would range from students in gender and art history courses at all levels, to professional educators, and to the public. Furthermore the book is clearly interdisciplinary, and readers interested in gender studies, autobiography, and art history would be attracted to the title. This book is subdivided into three chronological "parts," spanning the nineteenth century to the later twentieth century." --Contratapa.
