ref: 1974, Journal of Irish Literature, volume 3, page 53:
text: In order to understand the importance of context and genre for the identification of a re-citation, we may look at an example of a recurring re-citational source, namely, Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own. […] In [Janet] Frame's novels and autobiographies there are several references to Woolf's work in general and Room in particular. Indeed Room is re-cited in different ways in the different works studied here. At times, the re-citations further Woolf's ideas and other times they re-cite them against the grain, even if the difference between the two modes is elusive.

text: Having cited the "pernicious" formulation of this interpretation of origin—"you cannot help acting this way because your origin stages you so"—Spivak moves to re-cite herself and revise her own previously authored statement: "history lurks in it [origin] somewhere" is rewritten as "history slouches in it, ready to comfort and kill" (ibid., original emphasis). Through this moment of re-citation and revision, Spivak argues for an understanding of origins through a reexamination of institutions and inscriptions in order to then "surmise the mechanics by which such institutions and inscriptions can stage such a particular style of performance" (ibid.).
