Subject: Re: Reconfiguring History


I've accidentally deleted the replies to Imran Markar's query about
"material dealing with the story-telling function of history and feminist
retellings of the past."  If anyone has saved that on the List, I'd be
grateful if they would e-mail me a copy.  Thanks.
