Delves into the conflicting feelings of anxiety and empowerment that women, historically excluded from masculine discourse, feel when they dare to read and write. These essays draw upon feminist literary theory, narrative theory, and reader-response criticism to address women's ambivalence toward language--using textual examples from the medieval period to the present. Paper edition (unseen), $16.95. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
