Denise Riley, « Does a Sex Have a History? » tiré de son livre “Am I that Name?” Feminism and the Category of Women in History (1988)
Un sexe a-t-il une histoire ?Sojourner Truth, abolitionniste noire et esclave affranchie, prend la parole à la convention d’Akron en 1851 et va nommer sa propre force dans une péroraison célèbre à l’encontre de l’idée d’une fragilité de la femme, qui la rendrait inapte. Elle étaye sa démonstration du refrain « Ne suis-je pas une femme ? ». J’espère ici réussir à convaincre les lectrices et lecteurs qu’une Sojourner Truth moderne pourrait bien – s…

On the Lapidary Style
The lapidary style" suggests a manner of writing that runs close to working a material-carving lettering into rock, cutting a gem into fine facets. Poised between the properties of the stone and of the jewel, this term holds the tensions of stone's solidity and light's refraction. This discussion will range over the curious nature of this style, its virtues of concision and incisiveness, and what it might say about the "materiality" of language. …
Poets on Writing
Let no air now be sung
Silent did depart
Late March
Never to disinter the pink companion
Hiding in plain sight
I try to find you but you are not here.I’ve studied absence, fought to fill it in –courage comes easier with a grasp of why.A secret’s camouflaged when unconcealed.I chose to not see/saw the thing
The eclipse’
Clemency
Catastrophic thinking
French Feminism Revisited
Dark Looks
Impersonal Passion
There is a forcible affect of language which courses like blood through its speakers.Language is impersonal: its working through and across us is indifferent to us, yet in the same blow it constitutes the fiber of the personal.Such bold-sounding propositions could, however, fill their proposer with defensive anxiety.For to elaborate the ways in which language exerts a torsion on its speakers might appear to be an instance of fiddling while Rome, …

The Words of Selves
Am I That Name? Feminism and the Category of ‘Women’ in History
The black abolitionist and freed slave, Sojourner Truth, spoke out at the Akron convention in 1851, and named her own toughness in a famous peroration against the notion of woman’s disqualifying frailty. She rested her case on her refrain Aint I a woman?’ It’s my hope to persuade readers that a new Sojourner Truth might well-except for the catastrophic

Poststructuralist Gender Historians
WHAT MANY SOCIAL HISTORIANS are dubbing 'the controversy about discourse theory' is often posed as a single yes-or-no question. It may be more useful, however, to use a review of two key works in this controversy to clarify several related but distinct debates regarding theory, method, and politics which often are lumped together in an indigestible polemical mass. These two books are generally 'on the same side,' politically and theoretically, bu…
'Am I That Name?'
‘The Social’, ‘Woman’, and Sociological Feminism
Writing in the first year of the nineteenth century, Madame de Staël lamented the inheritance of chaotic Republican notions of women allied to the devastations bequeathed by Rousseauesque suppositions. She reflected: The education of women has, in all free countries, been adapted to the peculiar constitution established in each: at Sparta they were accustomed to the exercise of war; at Rome, austere and patriotic virtues were required of them. If…
‘Am I That Name?’
Writing about changes in the notion of womanhood, Denise Riley examines, in the manner of Foucault, shifting historical constructions of the category of "women" in relation to other categories central
