Interesting interview with Marina Warner on how lack of confidence affects women as writers, critics, students and engaged citizens (scroll to the latter half, though the first half is interesting as well): http://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/art-books/critical-thinking-interview-marina-warner-mythographer/#.U2viZ61dX2A
That's a great interview! I was very interested in Marina Warner's comments about the way myth is being tamed and diluted.
The question of women's confidence is an important one.
Thanks for the link, J.A..
Glad you liked the link, Carol. The myth comment is intriguing.
Enjoyed the interview.
So glad you enjoyed it, Sam.
