And They Lived Happily Ever After ... : Helme Heine's <i>The Most Beautiful Egg in the World</i> and the Fairy Tale of Feminism

  • Maria Morrison

Περίληψη

Morrison contends that both modern literature and academic discourse about it is still bound to the language of patriarchy. While this suggests that feminists should develop a new language to weave into the language taught to children, Heine's text suggests that teaching our children a new language is a much more difficult process than one might think.
