(Friedman 18) Elaine Showalter coined this term in her essay \"Toward a Feminist Poetics.\" It refers to a criticism that constructs \"a female framework for the analysis of women's literature, to develop new models based on the study of female experience, rather than to adapt male models and theories\" (quoted by Groden and Kreiswurth from \"Toward a Feminist Poetics,\" New Feminist Criticism, 131). The work of gynocriticism has been criticized by recent feminists for being essentialist, following too closely along the lines of Sigmund Freud and New Criticism, and leaving out lesbians and women of color. (Literary Terms)Gynocriticism is the study of feminist literature written by female writers inclusive of the interrogation of female authorship, images, the feminine experience and ideology, and the history and development of the female literary tradition. During the late eighteen hundreds and early nineteen hundreds respectively, Virginia Woolf and Simone de Beauvoir began to review and evaluate the female image and sexism in the works of male writers. During the nineteen sixties the feminist movement saw a reaction and opposition to the male oriented discourse of previous years. Most thoroughly developed during the late seventies and early eighties, gynocriticism was a result of the interrogative critiques utilised in post-structuralism and psychoanalysis."@en }
