Quotation
|
|
I agree with quote and how she
believes it is important to study the difference between male and female
writers.
|
“I nevertheless was primarily
interested in establishing, if only tentatively, that it would be productive
for researchers in the field to attend to differences between male and female
writers.” (pg. 167)
|
|
I like this quote because it
shows how feminism has changed.
|
“Fifteen years later we are at a
considerably different moment within feminist studies in general and feminist
composition in particular.” (pg. 167)
|
|
I like this quote because the
author is being honest and we see a different side of her writing.
|
“I must confess that even when I
was writing “Composing as a Woman” I felt uneasy about dichotomous
representations between males and females in the work I was drawing on and
about assumptions that women’s traditional roles were reproduced easily and
readily because daughters identified with and emulated their mothers.” (pg.
168)

I agree with this quote because
it was important to make a strong case in the past, or we would not be where
we are today.
|
“It was important, in the late
1980s, to make a strong case for differences between men and women, even if
we would later need to qualify, refine, and even contradict those claims.”
(pg. 168)
