Abstract

This essay combines a personal memory narrative of my involvement with literary communities in Canada with an analysis of the memory processes which produced that narrative. Referring to both individual and communal memory, I explore how and why individual memory is shaped by hegemonic forms. My personal narrative is then reformulated within a history of women's communities. This is done as a conscious attempt to reshape my individual memory and to recuperate a collective feminist history.
