what is now known as Haiti—the

sexual divisions of a
patriarchic

historians have celebrated and
privileged individual
creativity as the apogee of
artistic greatness, which they
then assigned as the property
of
only a select masculinity. It
took the intervention of

begin to reframe the
discipline. The feminist
engagement helped to move
attention
