Synopsis

This book examines the formation of identity and the role of translation and embodiment in women?s writings in Japan and North America ? specifically English Canada and Québec - in the 1980s and 1990s. The participation of women and minorities in culture has historically been neglected. Since the advent of second wave feminisms and of civil and minority rights movements - particularly since the 1980s and 1990s - women and minorities have been both visible and vocal, claiming for themselves a speaking position at the very centre of mainstream culture. The book posits that the work of these migrant and minority women writers allows readers to question their own identities in a postmodern and multicultural society.
