This book is based on the results of the research project “Neologismes per a l’actualització del diccionari normatiu” (NADIC) (studying neologisms to update the standard Catalan dictionary), financed by Institut d’Estudis Catalans, and carried out by the Network of Catalan Language Neology Observatories between 2015 and 2017.

The question of gender has been ignored sometimes or mystified in historical literary analyses. This book focuses on contemporary Catalan literature and adopts a gender perspective that is difficult to overlook today. This volume contributes to the analysis of those past views on gender as they appear through the lense of contemporary Catalan literature.

Este libro es una exploración del pensamiento occidental que surgió de la fragua de las grandes escuelas filosóficas.
