Since its inception, black feminist literary criticism has produced a number of sophisticated theoretical works that have challenged traditional approaches to (black) literature. This collection of essays explores past and current productions of black feminist theorizing, attempting to trace the trajectories in black feminist criticism that have emerged in American scholarship since the 1990s. Taking black feminist literary criticism as the subject of inquiry, the book focuses on the field’s recent theoretical contributions to literary productions and their impact on other fields. The volume contains an introduction by Cheryl A. Wall, and essays by Karla Kovalova, Heike Raphael-Hernandez, and Nagueyalti Warren. Editorial Reviews About the Author Karla Kovalova holds a Ph.D. in Modern History and Literature with emphases in African American and African studies and Women’s studies from Drew University (USA). She teaches at the English Department of the University of Ostrava, Ostrava (Czech Republic).
