Gender and Identity in Franz Grillparzer's Classical Dramas: Figuring the Female - Paperback

by Alicia E. Ellis (Author)

Figuring the Female explores language as a cultural document for an intervention into the ways that female alterity is framed in the ancient world. Grillparzer creates a new way of being that is primarily discursive in which the once unintelligible female figure may be known and heard.
