Subject: Re: Kristevan subject in process/on trial


Dear Jennifer Allen:

At the recent conference on French Feminism in Lubbock, I presented a paper
culled from my dissertation, a biblical reading in which I apply Kristeva's
concept of the subject in process.  The abstract is posted in the French
Feminism Archives.  I hope you will find it helpful.

Best of luck,
Charlotte Berkowitz 

p.s.  TO EVERYONE I PROMISED TO SEND A COPY OF THE PAPER AFTER "A QUICK
REVISION:" I'm still trying to find time to work on it.  But I haven't
forgotten.

Take care,
Charlotte
