Law firm forces Mary Daly's hand - feminist professor sued for disallowing male students - Interview

National Catholic Reporter, March 5, 1999 by Pamela Schaeffer

Daly said she would use her leave to write a sequel to her most recent book, Quintessence ... Realizing the Archaic Future: A Radical Elemental Feminist Manifesto (Beacon Press 1998).

Other titles of Daly's books, many of then notable for creative wordplay, are Beyond God the Father: Toward a Philosophy of Women's Liberation; Pure Lust: Elemental Feminist Philosophy; Webster's First New Intergalactic Wickedary of the English Language; and Outercourse: The Be-Dazzling Voyage.

Daly's work, thought it has not earned her full professorship at a Boston College, is known internationally. "There are dissertations and books about my books," she said. She is frequently invited to speak at universities and conferences in the United States and abroad.

"The only place my work isn't recognized is at Boston College," she said.
