description: Editing Women is a collection of original essays presented at the annual Conference on Editorial Problems, held at the University of Toronto in early November of 1995. The six women contributors, representing various disciplines, deal with texts that range from the medieval to the modern. Questions regarding the role of gender, the exercise of power in the process of editing texts by women, cultural contexts and constraints of the author's time, and the suppression and revision of material after the death of the author are among the problems addressed by scholars who are only too aware of the editorial control they themselves exercise. This is an outstanding collection of essays by a remarkable group of scholars.
