Questions are based on the following passage. As the works of dozens of women writers have been rescued from what E. P. Thompson calls "the enormous condescen- Line sion of posterity," and considered in relation (5) to each other, the lost continent of the female tradition has risen like Atlantis from the sea of English literature. It is now becoming clear that, contrary to Mill's the- ory, women have had a literature of their (10) own all along. The woman novelist, accord- ing to Vineta Colby, was "really neither sin- gle nor anomalous," but she was also more than a "register and spokesman for her age." She was part of a tradition that had its ori- (15) gins before her age, and has carried on through our own. Many literary historians have begun to reinterpret and revise the study of women writers. Ellen Moers sees women's literature (20) as an international movement, "apart from, but hardly subordinate to the mainstream: an undercurrent, rapid and powerful. This 'movement' began in the late eighteenth cen- tury, was multinational, and produced some (25) of the greatest literary works of two centuries, as well as most of the lucrative pot-boilers." Patricia Meyer Spacks, in The Female Imagination, finds that "for readily discernible historical reasons women have characteristi- (30) cally concerned themselves with matters more or less peripheral to male concerns, or at least slightly skewed from them. The differences between traditional female preoccupations and roles and male ones make a difference in (35) female writing." Many other critics are begin- ning to agree that when we look at women writers collectively we can see an imaginative continuum, the recurrence of certain pat- terns, themes, problems, and images from generation to generation.
