Amy Prendergast, Mere Bagatelles
Amy Prendergast’s archival study of women’s diaries from eighteenth-century Ireland demonstrates that recovery work in women’s literature is far from complete.

The book’s opening l…

The works reviewed here, including Rosi Braidotti’s ‘The Virtual as Affirmative Praxis: A Neo-Materialist Appro…
