Katherine Kearns explores the feminist, theoretical, and psychoanalytic implications inherent in the relationship between history and narrative. She argues that literary, political and social history must account for individual psychological moments and states in which thought and action occur. This book challenges conventional historical and literary narratives from a distinctively feminist perspective.
