The objective was to make more information on these writers available for future literary historians, feminist critics and social historians to develop knowledge and understanding of this material. By making available the basic materials for scholarly research in this field, the project aims to help generate critical analysis of the role of regional, class and gender factors in the formation of writers, and the intersection of these factors in the nature of the work produced. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tina O'Toole\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cork University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.26h x 6.40w x 1.03d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781859183885","brand":"Cork University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45089864024201,"sku":"9781859183885","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_b64a8925-ee71-4ba2-983f-fd0e95a920d0.jpg?v=1766477331","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/dictionary-of-munster-women-writers-1800-2000-9781859183885","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
