Feminist Studies/Critical Studies: Issues, Terms, and Contexts

TL;DR: A feminist renaissance is under way as mentioned in this paper, a shift in perspective far more extraordinary and influential than the shift from theology to humanism of the European Renaissance, and it is by now clear that a feminist renaissance was under way, and that it is not so much to discuss the validity of their assessment or extensiveness of its claim as to examine the manner of the shift, to analyze, articulate, address the terms of this other perspective.
