Storied Selves focuses on feminist Witches and their constructions
of identities through the use of opposition and speculation as
technologies of identity, particularly (post)colonial, maternal,
and holistic identities. Through these identity formations,
feminist Witches are invested in changing consciousness to create a
just and sustainable world-an act which is fundamental to their
practices of magic. Looking at three novels-Barbara Walker's
Amazon, Cynthia Lamb's Brigid's Charge, and Starhawk's The Fifth
Sacred Thing-Klassen asks three questions: how are technologies of
identity deployed; where are feminist Witches most successful in
promoting and/or creating models for a just and sustainable world;
where and how can feminist Witches push these technologies of
identity even further to create continuing oppositional and
speculative identities which could lead to a just and sustainable
world?
