Jeanne L. Schroeder, Abduction from the Seraglio:  Feminist Methodologies and the Logic of Imagination, 70 TEXAS L. REV. 109 (1991).

 

Abstract:

The author argues that much feminist jurisprudential writing to date might be seen as an attempt to escape one masculinist set of theories by utilizing another form masculinist jurisprudence and seeks to introduce a different voice for feminism.  The author notes that two general categories of errors have arisen in examining legal scholarship: first is the general tendency to identify certain legal theories as inherently and irreconcilably feminine or masculine, and second is the tendency for feminists to ignore the writing of male philosophers who have struggled with many of the same issues.
