"The term women's liberation remains charged and divisive decades after it first entered
political and cultural discourse around 1970. In Feeling Women's Liberation, Victoria
Hesford mines the archive of that highly contested era to reassess how it has been
represented and remembered. Hesford refocuses debates about the movement's history
and influence. Rather than interpreting women's liberation in terms of success or
failure, she approaches the movement as a range of rhetorical strategies that were
used to persuade and enact a new political constituency and, ultimately, to bring
a new world into being. Hesford focuses on rhetoric, tracking the production and deployment
of particular phrases and figures in both the mainstream press and movement writings,
including the work of Kate Millett. She charts the emergence of the feminist-as-lesbian
as a persistent "image-memory" of women's liberation, and she demonstrates how the
trope has obscured the complexity of the women's movement and its lasting impact on
feminism." -- Publisher website
