HOW TO SUPPRESS WOMEN’S WRITING (LOUANN ATKINS TEMPLE WOMEN AND CULTURE)
Book ID/图书代码： 13590020C00004
English Summary/英文概要： Are women able to achieve anything they set their minds to? In How to Suppress Women’s Writing, award-winning novelist and scholar Joanna Russ lays bare the subtle—and not so subtle—strategies that society uses to ignore, condemn, or belittle women who produce literature. As relevant today as when it was first published in 1983, this book has motivated generations of readers with its powerful feminist critique.
“What is it going to take to break apart these rigidities? Russ’s book is a formidable attempt. It is angry without being self-righteous, it is thorough without being exhausting, and it is serious without being devoid of a sense of humor. But it was published over thirty years ago, in 1983, and there’s not an enormous difference between the world she describes and the world we inhabit.”
—Jessa Crispin, from the foreword
“A book of the most profound and original clarity. Like all clear-sighted people who look and see what has been much mystified and much lied about, Russ is quite excitingly subversive. The study of literature should never be the same again.”
—Marge Piercy
“Joanna Russ is a brilliant writer, a writer of real moral passion and high wit.”
—Adrienne Rich
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本書是女性主義者JOANNA RUSS的著名文學評論，她在書中模仿文學評論中的慣用論調，以反諷的方式寫了一份“抑止女性寫作指南”，以此尖銳地指出和批評那些施加在女性作者身上，阻止、貶低和無視女性寫作的社會阻力。同時，這又是一部主流視野之外的文學史，它重新搜羅了那些被認為不值得瞭解的作品，並對那些文學史上鼎鼎大名的作者指名道姓：狄更斯、海明威、伍爾夫、桑塔格、勃朗特姐妹——有人曾貶抑女性寫作，有人是被貶抑者，而有人兩者皆是。
這是一部憤怒又銳利的女性主義文學批評，它直指女性書寫所面對的結構性暴力，帶領讀者重新認識那些被貶抑的聲音。
