Reviews
Eleonora Fonseca Pimentel richly deserves a major Anglophone study, and in Verina Jones she has found an editor-translator whose edition of Fonseca Pimentel's writings more than makes up for past neglect. Jones makes these writings and their author accessible to a broad and non-specialist readership through introductory and narrative sections that place Fonseca Pimentel in inter-linked historical, biographical, political and cultural contexts, and not least in her far from uncontended place in gender and feminist studies. The Epilogue complements this with a critical review of the changing bibliographies and interpretations of Fonseca Pimentel, and takes up the defense of her politics against critics who have accused her of ignoring issues of gender.
