Book Synopsis The Feminist Difference by : Barbara Johnson
Download or read book The Feminist Difference written by Barbara Johnson. This book was released on 1998. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employing surprising juxtapositions, THE FEMINIST DIFFERENCE looks at fiction by black writers from a feminist/psychoanalytic perspective, at poetry, and at feminism and law. The author presents an unfailingly close reading of moments at which feminism seems to founder in its own contradictions--and moments that reemerge as sources of a revitalized critical awareness.
