A new literature springs up in the new world. Revolution: women's rights and women's writing. Their native land. Finding a form. Masterpieces and mass markets. Slavery, race, and women's writing. The Civil War. The coming woman. American sibyls. New women. The golden morrow. Against women's writing: Wharton and Cather. You might as well live. The Great Depression. The 1940s: World War II and after. The 1950s: three faces of Eve. The 1960s: live or die. The 1970s: the will to change. The 1980s: on the jury. The 1990s: anything she wants.
