Throughout the world women are writing creatively about their experience, through in many cases and for many reasons their literature remains a vast untapped source of unheard voices. This book provides a provocative and stimulating introduction to that increasingly vociferous achievement. The book is divided geographically into five main regions: Africa, the Arab World, Asia, the Caribbean and Latin America. Each contributor looks at the literary traditions, the cultural and social background of the women writers, and the many problems they face, especially in cultures where literature in general and criticism in particular are dominated by men. Each section is prefaced by a revealing selection of proverbs and includes a major interview with one writer. The writers interviewed are Miriam Tlali (South Africa), Etel Adnan (Lebanon), Nabaneeta Deb-Sen (India), Astrid Roemer (Surinam) and Cristina Peri Rossi (Uruguay).

In 1594, the first Dutch ships sailed to ‘the East’. Throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth century, almost five thousand ships were sent to the Dutch East Indies, attracting a growing number of travellers, with trade as one of the major incentives. In addition to Dutch missionary ambitions, progress and technological innovations not only fed the growing hunger for expansion, but also stirred an appetite for adventure. The hope for a life in welfare is mirrored in the growing numbers of passengers travelling ‘East’ in the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century. At the same time, Javanese travellers started to explore their homeland as well. Travelling the Dutch East Indies not only offers a diverse picture of travel and a critical perspective on the colonial ideology with which it is associated, but also shows how the collections of Leiden University Libraries can serve as a rich source for all kinds of historical research.
