Notes

It is no mere formula but literally true that this essay would not have been written without the consistent support of Sara Ruddick and Maureen MacGrogan, who edited, debated, and met with me at length to discuss it. I was lucky enough to receive from them the very resonance I am trying to call for here. While I am grateful for their immense wisdom, the mistakes are entirely my own. This Musing is dedicated to them and to Jessica Benjamin, whose voice I have counted on during long nights.
