Synopsis

Historically and culturally, various social groups such as women and people of color have been excluded from inheritance. More recently, advances in reproductive technology have also complicated notions of inheritance and genealogy. In this issue, scholars and writers reveal the multiplicity and power relations underlying inheritance while considering the broader role of feminist and reconstructionist efforts in redefining lineages of literary and intellectual inheritance.
