Contributors demonstrate that informal traditional and popular expressive cultural forms continue to be central to Canadians'' gender constructions and clearly display the creation and re-creation of women''s often subordinate position in society. They not only explore positive and negative images of women - the witch, the Icelandic Mountain Woman, and the Hollywood "killer dyke" - but also examine how actual women - taxi drivers, quilters, spiritual healers, and storytellers - negotiate and remake these images in their lives and work.
