The author poses a feminist challenge to the hidden assumptions within conventional historiography by focusing on the troubled relationship between subjectivity and history. By applying Freud's theories of how adult authority is forged, especially his notion of the Oedipus Complex, the author considers the anti-feminist, anti-individualist implications of any fully oedipalised discourse. 183 pages.
