In May 2017, the annual City University of New York (CUNY) Victorian Conference addressed the history of Victorian feminist criticism. Our conference coincided with the fortieth anniversary of A Literature of Their Own and the thirtieth anniversary of Desire and Domestic Fiction, affording us a chance to think about the legacy of these groundbreaking texts. Elaine Showalter, Martha Vicinus, and Nancy Armstrong spoke about their struggles to establish and maintain Victorian feminist work in the twentieth century, often against outright hostility. We also heard about issues in twenty-first-century Victorian feminist practice: Alison Booth spoke about digital-humanities codification of Victorian women's lives, Jill Ehnenn discussed queer revisions, and Maia McAleavey explored new theories of relationality, while I gave a response to Armstrong's talk. Meanwhile, Carolyn Oulton's discussion of the ongoing struggle to canonize Victorian women writers spoke to the continuous work required to make Victorian women's writing familiar to the field. It was an emotional day, for we all recognized that this might be one of the last times that the founding generation could be together to share these stories.

Feminism Though not a unified, single critical 'voice', feminist literary criticisms are in broad agreement on their shared role as political and politicised criticisms directed at matters of gender, sexuality and identity. Developing critical languages from the political discourses of the women's movement of the 1950s and 1960s, feminist criticism addresses the representation of women in literature and culture, in the work of both female and male authors. Critical feminisms have also concerned themselves with the role of the reader from a gendered perspective and with the study of women's writing. Feminist criticism has also addressed the relation of gender to matters of class and race, and has,

Entre as produções poéticas de autoria feminina da atualidade, a que mais se destaca são as obras de Angélica de Freitas. Com punhos armados de humor, ironia e sarcasmo, ela passa por cima de qualquer tabu. Suas poesias são como pedras atiradas, defendendo que a pluralidade de vozes implica numa pluralidade de gêneros, que expõem as dicotomias sobre o homem e a mulher que a sociedade patriarcal quer impor.
