Explore the intersection of feminist thought and self-writing with “Writing Selves: Contemporary Feminist Autobiography.” Published in 1995, this groundbreaking work by Jeanne Perreault introduces the concept of “autography” to define the unique space where feminist autobiography and theory meet. Perreault retheorizes self, identity, and community, examining how embodied and textual forces drive change. Through analyses of Audre Lorde, Kate Millett, Adrienne Rich, and Patricia Williams, “Writing Selves” reveals writing as a crucial tool for self-making. Discover how the recitation of “I” and “we” reconfigures subjectivity and expands feminist communities. A scholarly and essential read for understanding the poetics and politics of identity, “Writing Selves” is a vital contribution for readers of feminist theory and literary studies.
