Weaving Truth

- Essays on Language and the Female in Greek Thought

About Weaving Truth

"What if truth were a woman?" asked Nietzsche. In ancient Greek thought, truth in language has a special relation to the female by virtue of her pre-eminent art-form-the one Freud believed was even invented by women-weaving. The essays in this book explore the implications of this nexus: language, the female, weaving, and the construction of truth.
