While some soar to great heights of success on a wave of public acclaim, others quickly plunge into obscurity. Then there are those that live a largely underground existence, kept alive through the efforts of small bands of dedicated followers who spread the word in defiance of a larger silence. The latter is the story of Lise Vogel's Marxism and the Oppression of Women: Toward a Unitary Theory."<br>--From the new introduction by Sue Ferguson and David McNally <p/>In this pioneering work of Marxist feminism, Lise Vogel revisits classic Marxist texts, tracking analyses of the "woman question" in socialist theory from Marx through the Russian Revolution.
