| Summary: | In her article "Can the Subaltern Speak?" (Spivak 1996), Gayatri Spivak argues that the subaltern's voice cannot be heard and will not be heard because of the all consuming power of a hegemony and the "nostalgia for lost origins" (1996: 204) which necessarily envelopes the subaltern. Ironically, her doubts in retrieving subaltern history follows her initial calls for Subaltern Studies to include the female subaltern. |
