British and American Transatlantic Women Writers - BATWoW

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2013-083

 
Description of research activity:

The group is made up of specialists in the area of English Philology and more specifically in English literature and American literature. There are many studies focused on English literature and American literature (authors, works, historical, social and cultural context) and also comparative studies of some authors and some works. However, our aim is to systematically examine the mutual influence of both literary spheres from the point of view and in the work of women writers. We will analyse both the primary and secondary bibliography of several English-language women authors on both sides of the Atlantic in order to establish what links and influences exist.
