Writing Women's Literary History David Roman the insolent one''This engaging, revisionary book questions current notions of feminist literary historyincluding approaches to Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own and contributes significantly to new understandings of seventeenth century women's writing. It is especially timely because feminism is in a particularly self reflexive mood at the moment, and Ezell's approach is original in its attention to the early period.''
