On their own premises: Southern Women Writers and the Homeplace

In writing on Kierkegaard an author should consider as Kierkegaard did, not only his purpose in writing, but the purposes of writing which may contradict him. Gene Fendt offers a polyvocalic reading of Works of Love, grounded in a post-structuralist theory of signs, leading as a matter of literary and psychological, if not ontological, course to Fear and Trembling.
