Historicizing Theory
I'll need to come back to this one, as I'm not sure I quite buy (or perhaps simply don't understand) the notion of the "female mind" that has been effaced through the normative injunction in literature for male readers. To implicitly rely on a notion of 'liberating' the feminine way of reading seems to me, (a) very in line with a tradition of French feminist though, and (b) unproductive in relation to Felman's discussion of the instability of self-knowledge and autobiography. So this deserves a re-read, and will be getting one when I've more time in the spring. Really powerful reading of Freud's Irma dream, and though I've not read Balzac, her chapters on his stories were fun reads. It's the first and last chapters, however, where Felman stakes her claim--and it's to those chapters that I need to return before making a clear response to this text.
