Feminist literary theories are pluralist, borrowing from other types of theory, such as Marxism or postmodernism, but they always remain woman-centered. Courses in women’s writing, in literature and gender, in philosophy and literature, proliferate-- requiring readers to reconsider many of the basic assumptions on which the study of literature was originally founded.
