Wise women can no longer be allowed as exceptions, eccentrics or witches, possessed of extra-human insight when they are possessed of any insight at all. Their rewriting of the human adventure is part of a necessary rewriting of history and of the future, which they will share with men. A politics which concerns itself with the future of the human race will need to refuse the blandishments of single or simple theories or solutions. It could do worse than begin from new readings of what women have said and written about a world organised to exclude them. JANE MILLER, WOMEN WRITING ABOUT MEN
