ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Abstract: »Eight students of the University of Delhi's Miranda House examine rape culture in Ovid's "Philomela" through a postcolonial lens, tracing it through retellings across the Western literary canon in which rape becomes simultaneously normalized and weaponized.« (Source: Hewett, Heather, et al.»Introduction: Literary Studies as Literary Activism.« #MeToo and Literary Studies: Reading, Writing, and Teaching about Sexual Violence and Rape Culture. Edited Mary K. Holland et al. New York 2021: 10.)
