Sue Thornham explores issues of space place time and gender in feminist filmmaking through an examination of a wide range of films by contemporary women filmmakers ranging from the avantgarde to mainstream Hollywood Beginning from questions about space itself and the way it has been gendered she asks how representation functions in relation to space and time and how this too is gendered before moving to an exploration of how such questions might be considered in relation to womens filmmaking In sections dealing with spaces from wilderness to city she analyses in detail how these issues have been dealt with by women filmmakers addressing the work of filmmakers such as Jane Campion Kathryn Bigelow Julie Dash Maggie Greenwald Patricia Rozema and Carol Morley and films including An Angel at My Table 1990 Daughters of the Dust 1991 The Ballad of Little Jo 1993 Winters Bone 2010 Zero Dark Thirty 2012 and The Falling 2014

In a focused and compelling discussion Anis Bawarshi looks to genre theory for what it can contribute to a refined understanding of invention In describing what he calls the genre function he explores what is at stake for the study and teaching of writing to imagine invention as a way that writers locate themselves via genres within various positions and activities He argues in fact that invention is a process in which writers are acted upon by genres as much as they act themselves Such an approach naturally requires the composition scholar to replace invention from the writer to the sites of action the genres in which the writer participates This move calls for a thoroughly rhetorical view of invention roughly in the tradition of Richard Young Janice Lauer and those who have followed them Instead of mastering notions of good writing Bawarshi feels that students gain more from learning how to adapt socially and rhetorically as they move from one genred site of action to the next
