Autobiographical inscriptions : form, personhood, and the American woman writer of color /

This text is a discussion of the ways that innovations of form and structure contain and bolster arguments for personhood. Organized thematically, with chapters focusing on central questions of form, this work pairs canonized texts with less well-known works.
