RT Journal Article T1 Inside the whale: configurations of an-other female subjectivity A1 Palacios González, Manuela K1 Poetry K1 Galicia K1 Ireland K1 Ecocriticism K1 Ecofeminism K1 Whale K1 Animal studies K1 Comparative literature K1 Contemporary literature AB The posthumanist paradigm of the last three decades has brought about a transformation in what we understand as “human”, and its postanthropocentric proposals —common to posthumanist and ecocritical debates— have called for a radical revision of the relationship between culture and nature and have fostered bonds of continuity between these (Braidotti and Dolphijn). The current article focuses on the relationship of continuity between humans and animals in contemporary Irish and Galician poetry, and in particular on the motif of the whale, in that such continuity illustrates the emergent configurations of female subjectivity produced in these two Atlantic communities of Western Europe since the 1990s PB Taylor & Francis SN 0049-7878 YR 2018 FD 2018-02-13 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/16652 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/16652 LA eng NO Manuela Palacios (2018) Inside the Whale: Configurations of An-other Female Subjectivity, Women's Studies, 47:2, 160-172, DOI: 10.1080/00497878.2018.1425579 NO This is the Accepted Manuscript of the following article: [Manuela Palacios (2018) Inside the Whale: Configurations of An-other Female Subjectivity, Women's Studies, 47:2, 160-172, DOI: 10.1080/00497878.2018.1425579].Free e-print of the article available from: https://www.tandfonline.com/eprint/3XU8StYKQsbT4yuVtGGC/full NO This essay has been completed as part of the research projects “Eco-Fictions.
