abstract:The impact of Judith Fetterley’s The Resisting Reader on the development of feminist literary criticism, particularly of the American literary canon, is well known. The parallels between Fetterley’s late 1970s call for women to become resistant readers and the work of literary historians invested in the actual reading practices of women reading women’s writing (in novels of the early American period) are at the heart of this personal reflection.

abstract:The argument of Judith Fetterley’s The Resisting Reader focuses on the centrality of “power” to feminist criticism, and how a critique of gendered power relations leads to an unmasking of what she terms “immasculation.” This names a process in which women readers (and critics) are compelled to identify with male perspectives and patriarchal values in fiction written by men. In contrast she posits the power of women-centered reading practices and resistance to homophobic interpretive and scholarly conventions.

Erin Smith
abstract:This article considers Judith Fetterley’s The Resisting Reader in relation to the author’s current research on Cold-War American women’s crime fiction. The dominant critical framework about this fiction from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s is noir, a masculinist genre about male loners / outsiders that often embraces a cynical or nihilistic worldview. Many of these books objectify women and feature a spider woman or femme fatale, who is punished for her pursuit of self-interest and use of her sexuality to attain power. The lesser-known female crime writers of the period were–in many ways–resisting readers of this tradition. Their re-readings and rewritings often privileged community and connection over isolation and offered more complicated female characters. The author uses the case of Charlotte Armstrong’s A Dram of Poison (1956) to make this case.

abstract:Immasculation, Judith Fetterley’s neologism, describes how male-coded language usages dominate the teaching of literature. In science and philosophy as well, male-coded uses of language have created innacurate senses of what scientists have studied in nature and in how we understand nature.

abstract:This essay traces the impact of the wider ideological landscape regarding “identity politics,” interpretive practice, and literature of the 1970s on Judith Fetterley’s The Resisting Reader. Specifically, it tracks the traces of Black and women of color feminist organizing legible in Fetterley’s text, as well as those left by social movements operating at the University of Pennsylvania in 1971. Though these traces go unattributed, this article argues that their presence offers an opportunity to read, as Fetterley might put it, a closed system from “without.” The author’s resistant reading of Fetterley’s text suggests how her “radical feminism” calls for a distinct attention to the materialist operations of academic and literary institutions in an investigation of their racialized, patriarchal power.
