Frontmatter and Editorial
Year: 2024
Type: paratext
Abstract: In lieu of an abstract, here is the first pragraph of the frontmatter and editorial: Resuming the discussion of gender, health, and illness begun in Illuminating Gender I, the contributions to our current issue continue to address discursive conceptualizations of illness. In their analyses of a wide array of women's narratives and poetry, dealing with illnesses so diverse as breast cancer, depression, and HIV/AIDS, the articles comprised in Illuminating II illustrate how women have contested normative notions of gender and illness. The discussion of these questions is completed by the outline of a newly founded health sciences master's program focusing on the nexus of gender and public health.
