      abstract = {This book will provide empirical engagements of Nigerian  women in the private and public spaces and their  adaptations, alterations and integration of the private and  public spaces. This approach is contrary to most existing  studies which may not necessarily provide contextual and  empirical evidences of the debates about the spaces of  women or interrogate both the private and public spaces in  a single volume. This book will offer a novel insight into  gender and power dynamics, especially as it relates to the  cultural spaces, private spaces and public spaces which  Nigerian women occupy and subjugate. The essays in this  book critically examine the Nigerian women in different  positions within the private and public spaces, the strong  inhibiting presence of patriarchy, and the resistance women  display to empower themselves. Mobolanle Sotunsa has  authored and (co)edited several volumes including Feminism  and Gender Discourse: The African Experience, Women in  Africa: Contexts, Rights, Hegemonies, Gender Culture and  Development in Africa, Expressions of Indigenous and Local  Knowledge in Africa, and Imagining Vernacular Histories:  Essays in Honour of Toyin Falola. Anthonia Makkwemoisa  Yakubu is Associate Professor of Gender and Oral Literature  at National Open University of Nigeria, Lagos. Her research  interests are in the areas of gender, autobiography, film,  and oral folklore, and she has published a number of papers  in these subject areas, including editing a 4-volume  biographical compendium on African women.},
