W. M. Keck Distinguished Service Professor and Professor of English at Pomona College, Cristanne Miller is the author of Emily Dickinson: A Poet's Grammar (1987) and Marianne Moore: Questions of Authority (1995), and co-author of Comic Power in Emily Dickinson (1993). She has also co-edited Selected Letters of Marianne Moore (1997), The Women and Language Debate: A Sourcebook (1994), and the influential essay collection Feminist Measures: Soundings in Poetry and Theory (1994), as well as two further works on Dickinson.

Guayas, 1989) and Turba de signos (Abrapalabra, 1995). Critics have noted her treatment of feminist issues and her exploration of the writing process. Her stories depict the marginalization of women who oppose the traditional patriarchy and who dare to appropriate the male discursive system (M. Victoria Garcia Serrano). Her use of self-referential narrators is a most appropriate means of portraying a world where different levels of reality co-exist; the Writer attempts to subvert those realities in order to "make the reader aware of the innate" fictitious nature of texts" (Manuel F. Medina). Gilda Holst teaches Literature and Communications at the Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Guayaquil.
