“Misogyny in English Departments meticulously and empathetically documents women's experiences with misogyny across ranks and positions in English Departments. Many of us will recognize our experiences with misogyny on these pages and in the voices of Robillard's interviewees. The interviewees have generously and courageously shared their stories and mapped the toll that misogyny has taken on their work lives, bodies, and psyches. In an age where universities and departments proclaim diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, Robillard calls out misogyny as 'the law enforcement branch of patriarchy' and demonstrates how women are often policed, punished, overworked, undervalued, and dismissed in English Departments. This book makes an important contribution to critiques of gendered labor structures and feminist analyses of sexual harassment and sex discrimination. Robillard and the interviewees' analyses of misogynistic patterns and logics give us frameworks for calling out and fighting those patterns in our English Departments and Writing Programs.”Eileen E. Schell, Professor of Writing and Rhetoric and Faculty Affiliate in Women's and Gender Studies, Syracuse University
