The question is not: Does pornography cause violence against women? Pornography is violence against women, violence which pervades and distorts every aspect of our culture. In this angry, painful and astonishing book, Andrea Dworkin shows us that pornography is at the heart of male supremacy. It defines women in terms of sexual colonisation. It says that women's bodies belong to men. Our repugnance for pornography is repugnance for the betrayal of our sexual integrity. We will be free only when pornography no longer exists: for we are the women in it.

About women and rape.

At issue are the politics of language; the uses of scholarship; and the topics of racism, history, and motherhood among others called forth by Rich as "part of the effort to define a female consciousness which is political, aesthetic, and erotic, and which refuses to be included or contained in the culture of passivity."

"The Dream of a Common Language explores the contours of a woman's heart and mind in language for everybody--language whose plainness, laughter, questions and nobility everyone can respond to. . . . No one is writing better or more needed verse than this."--Boston Evening Globe

A blend of memoir and history which investigates women's role as mother. Drawing on anthropology, medicine, psychology, literature and her own experience, the author explores the contradictory pleasures and pains of motherhood.

Anne Bradstreet, the first true poet in the American colonies, emerged during a time when literary creation was rare, especially for women. Born in England and raised in the household of the Earl of Lincoln, she sailed to Massachusetts Bay in 1630 after marrying Simon Bradstreet at sixteen. For forty years, she lived in the New England wilderness, raising eight children while facing sickness and hardship, all the while crafting poetry that established her as a pioneering voice. As noted by Adrienne Rich in her Foreword, Bradstreet was "the first non-didactic American poet," whose work embodied American nature and reflected personal intention over Puritan dogma. This volume includes all her extant poetry and prose, featuring modernized spelling and punctuation, and reproduces the second edition of Several Poems from 1678 along with a manuscript first printed in 1857. Rich's critique highlights the uneasiness surrounding women's intellectual pursuits during this era, as expressed in the Prologue of her early poems. Bradstreet's literary and historical allusions in The Tenth Muse reveal her broad learning, while her later works convey a more personal tone, reflecting her deep religious sense, love for her family, and the challenges she faced. Her writings, marked by a strong spirit and wit, establish her as a poet of sensibility and lasting significance.
